Welcome to Pendle Forest & Craven Hunt
The hunt meets twice a week - Tuesdays and Saturdays - and enjoys the beautiful countryside of the North Yorkshire/Lancashire border region. Good weather has meant for many successful meets this season. We are keeping our fingers crossed that this may continue well into next year. With the cooperation and help from farmers we are privileged to have access to some fantastic hunting territory.
The hounds are the stars - their enthusiasm never flags and their performance is top class, both in the show ring and in the field. It is possible to join as a foot follower, from which position you will have ample opportunity to meet the hounds face to face and be charmed by their cheeky affections.
Hunt life continues away from the horses - regular social events keep us all entertained and provide vital fund raising opportunities to keep hounds and staff going. We need all the support we can get so join up and join in.We can offer good value for your first days hunting so please ring the secretary to discuss the cost if you would like to join us for your first day hunting.

For any children or young people wanting to hunt with the Pendle, we have a Junior Representative to ensure you are helped before and during your day out with us. Jo Foster can be contacted on 07980 301808 or email her on info@jofosterracing.co.uk. We try to ensure a non jumping hunt member will be available to keep an eye on the youngest children and ensure their safety and enjoyment is paramount (and that of their parents!!)
Please remember we will be hunting within the law.
Many thanks
Michael Bannister, Senior Master
