To improve engagement prior to this year’s gathering, agencies from the Multi-Agency Strategic Coordination Group (MASCG) are holding a community drop-in event on Wednesday 14th May 2025 between 5pm and 8pm at Appleby Public Hall.
With the 2025 Appleby Horse Fair a little over a month away, Fair-goers who bring trailers (towed caravans) are being reminded of the importance of planning ahead and not arriving too soon.
The RSPCA is appealing for information after a horse was worked to death at Appleby Horse Fair. The stallion – a three-year-old skewbald trotter, 14hh – collapsed at Jubilee Bridge at around 3pm yesterday (Wednesday 5th June).
