The Society operates a Premium Scheme which subsidises the use of approved stallions and mares with proven merit to improve the Arabian breed and the quality of offspring.

The Society holds a National Championship Show every year as well as other affiliated shows throughout the United Kingdom.

The Society has a Performance Horse Award Scheme – a year-long high points competition for ridden horses which is free to enter for members of the Society. Horses compete in endurance, racing, show jumping, eventing, dressage and ridden showing.

The Arabian horse has always been regarded as influential in improving light horse and native pony breeds around the world. Arabian bloodlines are found in almost every breed of riding horse. The modern Thoroughbred racehorse as we know it is descended from three Arabian horses – the Godolphin Arabian, the Byerley Turk and the Darley Arabian who were imported into England in the eighteenth century.

Its history in the desert – living side by side with the Bedouin tribes, in close association with humans – has meant its beauty, intelligence, athleticism, versatility and kindness – has attracted owners over the centuries. It is truly a Horse for All Seasons and a Horse for all Reasons.
