I completed a 14-16 equine based course at Myerscough college.

Mucking out Preparing feed Making up and weighing hay nets Giving fresh water Cleaning buckets, water drinkers, tack and grooming brushes Preparing equipment for a show Turning out the horse to a high standard Plaiting Turn Out Night checks

Since the age of 13 I have worked on livery yards doing jobs such as: general day to day duties, grooming and trimming, bathing and plaiting in preparation for a show, tack cleaning, bring in and turn out and riding if needed.

From a young age I have produced and competed my own variety of horses including: youngsters and foals. I feel that I am very knowledgeable when it comes to breakers as I have always done all the ground work and breaking of my own ponies and learnt new things from each different pony I have worked with. I can work alone and as part of a team when needed using my own initiative on tasks to get the jobs done.

Most of my experience is with young/green horses that are still learning and rely on my confidence to make them go forward. I find this experience really rewarding as it is good to see them progress and compete in the future. I mostly have worked on flatwork getting them balanced and bending until they are ready to progress onto jumping. I have experience jumping all sorts of horses and ponies mostly competing in working hunter and the occasional show jumping. I can also long rein and lunge.

I have competed in country shows with previous ponies mostly in working hunter. I have also been a steward to judges at multiple shows since being 14. I have groomed and turnout to a high standard for liveries when they have needed someone there for an extra bit of help.
