Equine Work Experience
Over the years I have worked in many riding schools and a livery yard alongside a private event yard and have also developed my knowledge in the clinical secor in my time with a veterinary practice. Voluntary work has included working in yearling prep, heavy horses and also the competition sector. However, I am always looking to expand my field of experience within other areas of the industry.
Specialities
I have worked with all types of horses from ex race horses, happy hackers, eventers and heavy horses. I have also worked with foals for 3 years along with the brood mares prior to foaling down and once the foal has been born.
I can muck out at the expected industry rate and like to keep the yards I am responsible for upto a high standard while working either alone or with a team.
Type of Ride Work
I have ridden a variety of horses from your classic school master to nervous horses who need a lot of reassurance and young stock both in jumping and flatwork settings
Competition Details
I have been involved in competition organisation with the University centre sparsholt. In addition I have competed in both show jumping and showing.
