I have currently completed A-levels at sixth form so have gained no equine qualifications but this is something I am looking to do in the future.

• worked for Bondwood racing from 13 years old to 17 years old (4 years)
• Have 3 horses of my own, ranging from young to old, 2 of which I have taken through rehabilitation after surgery
• Volunteered at scorpion RDA for a year when I was 12, assisting in the riding of children and learning difficulties and carrying out basic yard duties such as mucking out and tacking up horses

• Worked with highly strung race horses, ranging from brood mares to foals
• issuing equine first aid, including bandages and medications
• mucking out to a high standard
• yard cleanliness

My riding experience varies from a green highly strung friesian mare, which I have owned since she was 4, to show jumping and unaffiliated competing up to 80cm my cob cross welsh mare. Both of these being very different rides and sometime challenging.

My older mare is in lighter work due to tendon surgery 3 years ago. We enjoy lots of hacking and light school work, with low level jumping involved and mainly keeping her supple and flexible.

I have competed low level unaffiliated this year but have not been involved in organising any.

Bondwood racing was a high level race yard, which I worked at for 4 years
