Happy New Year!
2024 was incredible—from internationals across Europe and the UK to achieving a dream of getting to the Paralympics in Paris! A huge thank you to everyone who made it possible!

🇫🇷 Paris 2024 🇫🇷

What an unforgettable experience the Paris Paralympics has been! Ever since attending London 2012 as a spectator, competing at the Paralympics has been a dream!

I’m honored to have represented Canada as part of the para-equestrian team with Jody and Bert. Huge thank you to the Blakiston Houston Estate for the generous opportunity to ride Happy Feet 3 and to the incredible team who made it all possible.

A special thanks for all the support from Team Canada.

Thank you to our Team Coach, Clive Milkins, for putting up with me; Jo Alderton for grooming and helping at the Games; and Lucinda, whose dedication simply made everything a reality. And, of course, thank you to my family, who have constantly been running around after me and supporting me.

Getting to the Paralympics truly took a village—from the help at RDA, to coaches, helpers, grooms, physios, supporters, friends, and family—the support I received was incredible. None of this would have been possible without all the help, both at home and at the actual Games. Thank you!

Paris 2024 Update

I had my first ride at the iconic Château de Versailles today. The pre-training camp this week at Equi-Normandie was amazing, with exceptional facilities and training. Looking forward to a couple of more days training before the competition kicks off!

In the lead-up to the Paralympics, I’ve been incredibly fortunate to get some training sessions with Eilish Smith on the mechanical horse at The Dressage Shed in Limavady. This has been great, providing me with guidance on technique, improving my posture, and my positioning.

A massive thank you to OnTyte for sending me a new pair of boots just in time for the Paralympics in Paris next month! The Magnetic Stirrup System has been a game-changer for my riding over the years, providing stability and confidence. Thank you!

HARTPURY CPEDI 2024 Reflection!

Hartpury was another really enjoyable show and a great experience for both myself and Happy Feet. Day 2 was a lot more relaxed after a tense Day 1, which was a big relief. I am very happy with how he handled the big atmosphere on the second day.

Thank you to all who made Hartpury possible: Happy Feet's owners, Blakiston Houston Estate; Lucinda, for all her support and everything she does to make it all happen; Jo Alderton, for grooming and helping; Clive Milkins, for coaching; and my support team at home and sponsors. None of this would be possible without you all.
