If you want to continue your evening afterwards, you might like to visit one of the local bars in Gullane including The Mallard, The Bonnie Badger, and The Old Clubhouse
Supporting Muirfield Riding Therapy
All proceeds support the work of Muirfield Riding Therapy (MRT); you will be directly helping our therapy ponies bring joy, and making a difference to the lives of people with disabilities. The charity is a Volunteer-led Centre, providing pioneering, life-changing equine facilitated therapy, free of charge. Our Centre was built by the community, is run by the community, for the benefit of members of the community. We receive no central funding. It is only through the generosity of individuals and organisations, and fundraising events like this one, that it is able to raise the £200,000+ it costs, per year, to fund the centre and its activities which benefit so many. Thank you for your support.
