If you own an equestrian business – perhaps a stud, riding school or trekking centre – and have always run it yourself, it can be difficult to know where to start with succession planning, but advice is available.

We know it can seem daunting just working out where to start with succession planning, but it really is worth tackling it in good time, for the sake of all involved. Succession planning for family businesses can have the added complexities of family relationships as well, but there are people who will be able to help you – even one session with a consultant who specialises in succession planning could pay dividends.
