Another busy day!! As I haven’t fully given up my ridden/groom freelance work yet, I do so many days fitting and the rest of the time I’m riding or mucking out. Today was a mixed day. 5 yards mucked out, 5 horses ridden, one helped to long line and then some more fixing at home a dog collar fixed and a keep sake made, before picking up my little boy and relaxing infront the T.V.

How have you all spent your Easter so far? We have been playing in our favourite vehicle and finding Easter eggs!!

Happy Easter everyone I hope you’re having a lovely start to your long weekend!!
As we move from winter into spring, your horse’s shape is likely changing more than you think. Winter downtime, changes in workload, and shifts in feed can all affect muscle tone and condition. As training picks up again, even small changes can impact how your saddle fits. Spring is the ideal time to schedule a pre-season saddle check and start the season with confidence. Book your pre-season check today.
My April diary is open and filling fast!! I am in the BS37 area on Friday the 10th so get in touch if I’m in the area and you want your saddles checking.

I started my qualifications with SMS and have already spent a lot of money to get to this point, I have been waiting for some of my exams for a long time now and have found them else where but this is proving to be very expensive to convert over, it does mean I could be qualified sooner, but having the lack of funds is making this really hard.

To transfer over and complete my qualification I need to complete case studies so rather then asking to be paid I am asking people to donate to my go fund me page, all the money I manage to raise will go towards exams qualifications and setting up the best saddlery business possible in your local area.

Any small amount is appreciated and will go a long way even if your not a case study and want to help I will be very grateful

Evening,

so many of you know me well from my freelance work as a rider/groom/instructor and what ever I have done personally over the last 16 years for you.

I am now looking for help from you guys to complete the final stage of my next adventure in life.

I was originally doing my exam with sms but I am finding this hard to get exam dates. I have done all my training and my written exam with them but to finalise my exam I will be completing with another exam bored who run a little differently.

I am looking for some case studies to eventually put forward as part of my exam, I would also like to take photo’s and videos of the fittings for my social’s and website.

In return you will get cheap saddle fitting and be on a 3-6 month saddle check rota with me, until your case study is over. If you wish to carry this on with me after that is an option.

If this is of any interest to you or you think you might be able to help please drop me a message

🤞I will be fully qualified asap!!!
