The brand manufactures riding helmets and body protectors in Cardiff, as it has done for five decades.

At Burghley, Champion will offer expert safety fittings, live demonstrations and introduce visitors to its new Insight peaked helmet and Liber8 body protector.

Champion products will be available to purchase at the event from the Champion stand and retail partners.

“Champion has been the trusted brand in rider safety for half a century, combining innovation, leading safety standards and proud British craftsmanship,” said Kerem Atasoy, CEO of brand owner Finest Brands International. 

“To mark this anniversary by joining forces with an event as prestigious as the Defender Burghley Horse Trials is a proud moment for us. Together, we’re championing a safer, stronger future for equestrian sport.”

Burghley is on 4 – 7 September.
