As we approach winter with the shorter days, we will all be wrapping up warm. The weather has already proved to be challenging this term, with lots of rainy days, so do please keep an eye out for messages in case any sessions need to be cancelled due to the weather.
All terms dates can be found on our Volunteer and Participant pages.
We do have some spaces available for our after school sessions on Mondays and Wednesdays starting in September. Do get in touch with Frances on flochrane@btinternet.com for more information.
As well as our flat work riding and hacking, we can now offer show jumping, endurance riding and the next ‘Tea with a Pony’ will take place on 3rd August at Manor Farm.
If you would like to find out more about any of our activities, do please get in touch.
