Celebrating the stars of equestrianism in partnership with NAF

We are delighted to launch this year’s H&H Awards, run in partnership with NAF. We will honour the heroes of 2019 in a glittering, star-studded ceremony at Cheltenham Racecourse on Wednesday 4 December.

“NAF is delighted to be the headline partner at the 2019 H&H awards because we believe that these are the awards that really matter within the industry. We are extremely proud to partner with Horse & Hound to celebrate the views of real people that love horses and love our sport,” said NAF’s Melissa Newman.

“Here at NAF we have always championed rewarding the incredible horses and humans that bring so much to the equestrian landscape and who better to celebrate with than the voice of the equestrian industry.”

As previously, the H&H Award winners will be nominated and voted for by you, with the exception of the lifetime achievement winner, who will once again be chosen by a Horse & Hound panel, which will include one independent judge.

Anyone is welcome to nominate the person, group or horse they feel deserves recognition. Nominations can be made using the links below or via the coupon in Horse & Hound magazine, on sale 1 August. View nomination terms and conditions >>

Following the close of nominations at 11.59pm on 11 September, the H&H judging panel will decide on a shortlist of contenders. The panel will be influenced by the number of nominations and strength of the story of the nominee’s dedication and achievement.

On 17 October we will announce the shortlisted candidates, sharing their stories and inviting you to vote for your winner online, with voting closing on 24 October.

The winners will be revealed at the H&H Awards dinner to which all those shortlisted will be invited with a guest.
