Sponsoring a jump area at the Burnham Market International Horse Trials this April was a proud moment for our team and a great opportunity to showcase our construction business in a unique setting.

Set against the stunning backdrop of North West Norfolk, the event is widely regarded as one of the most prestigious fixtures in the equestrian calendar. Bringing together top riders, exceptional horses, and a large crowd of spectators, it features three demanding phases: dressage, cross-country, and show jumping.

As part of our sponsorship, we dressed our jumps with elements that reflect our day-to-day work on site including branded hard hats, high-visibility jackets, and clear signage. It was a creative way to bring our industry into the heart of the course while reinforcing our identity as a luxury construction-focused business. The jump not only challenged competitors but also stood out as a strong visual representation of what we do.

The cross-country phase, in particular, proved to be a highlight. Riders tackled a challenging 24-fence course stretching across the Norfolk countryside, with a variety of obstacles including logs, ditches, and water features, all designed to test precision, control, and partnership between horse and rider.

We were especially pleased to see high-profile competitors in attendance, including Zara Tindall, which added to the excitement and prestige of the event.

Being involved in such a well-respected competition was a fantastic experience. It allowed us to support a sport that values skill, discipline, and craftsmanship, qualities that closely align with our own approach to construction, while also connecting with a wider audience in a memorable and engaging way.
