Tweseldown’s organiser to step down

Brynley Powell is stepping down from his role as the organiser of Tweseldown Horse Trials at the end of this year.

With Brynley’s input, the venue has undergone a rejuvenation during recent years, but he has also had to contend with various battles to keep the event up and running, including restrictions imposed by Natural England.

“After 12 years, I have decided to hand over the role from 2015,” he told H&H. “We have not yet confirmed who will be taking over, but we have a few people in mind. I do hope to be involved in the event over the next few years in an advisory capacity.”
