What is our mission?

I have well over 25 years of experience dealing with equids in all spheres ranging from riding, training and administering a good professional standard of veterinary care to them. In my opinion stable management and vet care is high on my list ,Students / owners need to be confident in dealing with sick horses / minor ailments and need to understand their needs, they need to recognize a sick horse and must deal with the problem effectively and efficiently.

In 1995 I a gained my BHS AI then obtained by BHS IT all obtained at Wellington Riding. Here I managed horses and staff, lectured ,trained working pupils, students and livery clients to gain their Stages 1, 2, 3,  PTT and finally their BHS AI.
