I have been working with and riding horses since I was 7 years old. I started at a riding school where we were taught to ride and carry out stable duties i.e. mucking out, poo-picking, ragworting, grooming and plaiting ponies/horses as practice for showing, bathing and making feeds. I was there for 5 years and did this every weekend, I was also taught how to ride here and was often asked to help out with lessons. I also did showing and some show jumping with the horses at this yard.
I moved to a livery yard after this. I started out with just loaning a pony once or twice a week and then started working there on the weekends and school holidays. I carried out tasks such as mucking out, water-filling, filling up haynets/mangers, rugging-up and turning out horses. I also did showing with my pony here and was taught road safety and hacking-out.
Altogether I have been riding and been in constant contact with horses for a total of 12 years.
I don't have a specific type of riding which I do, I have done many different types of riding such as dressage, show jumping, hacking and schooling. I most enjoy jumping and schooling but do not mind trying something new or doing whatever is needed or asked of me.
I have attended many family shows as well as a few bigger shows such as Hadlow when I first started showing. When I loaned my pony we used to hold shows at the stables for the public and were asked to join in with our own horses to give them some experience of showing on home ground. I usually entered the show jumping classes.
I have attended a Dressage competition before and was placed 3rd of 30 or so riders. I qualified for Hickstead Sunshine Tours but was unfortunately unable to attend.
