Supporter Guidance for 2025
Hawick Common Riding Committee, in collaboration with the Rideout Working Party, has prepared three essential information guides.

Our goal is to ensure safe, respectful, and well-organised events for everyone involved.If you are supporting Hawick Common Riding in any way, please familiarise yourself with the relevant guidance.
