Sophie

I have 10 GCSES and am awaiting the results for my A levels: business, psychology and geography. I have a qualification in Introduction to Business and Marketing.

I finished my A levels at school in March due to the Corona virus and will be taking a gap year before starting university where I will be studying Primary Teaching BA(HONS).

I have experience working with difficult youngsters to schoolmasters. I am a confident rider who helps to train horses who rear, buck or are very difficult. I have retrained ex racehorses and shown in hunters, equitation, and show jumping. I have assisted in producing sales horses with my trainer in the past. I have rehabilitated horses from injuries and surgeries such as Kissing Spine operations. I have experience working at full livery yards, and exercising horses for clients. My role included: Mucking out, turning out, changing rugs, feeding, haying, watering, exercising by either riding or lunging, grooming, bathing, show preparation, cleaning tack, bandaging and equine first aid. I also have worked at a Trail Ride business for several years, doing the general upkeep of the horses and being a trail ride leader. I have been hunting both in the UK and Bermuda.

I am a confident rider who likes a challenge. I like to take on new information and learn. I enjoy working as a team member and I am known as a hard working individual who is very reliable and responsible.

Schooling, Lunging, Show jumping, Equitation, Hunters, and Hunting

I have competed up to aged 15-18 flat equitation classes, aged 15-18 3 foot equitation, up to 3 foot hunters, and up to 3 foot 3 in show jumping. I have also done in-hand classes.
