A Horse Watch Meeting is a community gathering organised to enhance the safety and security of horses and their owners by addressing equine-related and rural crime prevention. Typically hosted by local equine liaison groups, such as the Devon & Cornwall Watch Associaion, these meetings bring together horse owners, riders, and other stakeholders to share information on crime trends, discuss preventive measures, and promote security practices like property marking and surveillance. Participants may receive updates on local incidents, learn about protective equipment, and network with others to foster a collaborative approach to safeguarding equine welfare and property. These meetings aim to empower the equestrian community to reduce risks and respond effectively to threats.
