The Worplesdon & District Bridleways Association (WDBA) was founded in 1992 by horse riders from Worplesdon and the surrounding areas, including Pirbright, Normandy, Ash, Wood Street and Whitmoor Common. The association's main objectives are to:

• Provide circular horse rides avoiding highways wherever possible.
• Protect, maintain and improve existing tracks to ensure all-year-round use.
• Establish good relations with the MoD for improved access to Ash and Pirbright Ranges.
• Maintain pressure on local authorities for more access and safer road crossings.
• Establish and maintain good relationships with landowners, councils and other interested parties for
  safe routes linking areas suitable for off-road riding.
• Revise local maps to give clearer indication of permissive horse rides, bridleways and suggested routes.
• Develop good relations with other users of the countryside and encourage their understanding of horses.
• Obtain financial support through grants, events and sponsorship to deliver our aims.

The Worplesdon & District Bridleways Association has:

• Raised £10,000 from the Breathing Places lottery fund to resurface a path on Normandy Common.
• Raised over £20,000 through grants and fundraising events.
• Produced laminated maps of Whitmoor and Broad Street Commons showing permissive horse rides.
• Re-opened and resurfaced paths in Ash Green and on Whitmoor, Backside and Broad Street Commons.
• Liaised with landowners to open paths linking Wood Street and Normandy.
