🏅🐴 Huge congratulations to our Special Olympics athletes! 🐴🏅

This week we were incredibly proud to take 6 athletes to their first Special Olympics regional equestrian competition.

For anyone who isn’t familiar, Special Olympics provides sporting opportunities for people with intellectual (learning) disabilities, giving athletes of all abilities the chance to train, compete and shine in an inclusive and supportive environment.

Our athletes competed in horse trials, equitation and dressage and came home with an amazing collection of gold, silver and bronze medals! 🌟

We are so proud of every single one of them. Their hard work, determination, confidence and sportsmanship were wonderful to see, and it was such a special experience to watch them represent us, and themselves so brilliantly.

Well done to Evie, Gracie, Rema, Rosie, Charlie and Rowan, you should be incredibly proud of yourselves! 💙🐴

Meet the team series!!

To celebrate 20 years of Newark equestrian we are doing a meet the team series, starting with our business owner, Christine Carlile! 🎉

Christine is a BHS intermediate instructor with over 45 years of experience in all aspects and disciplines of horsemanship. She has managed many yards over the years, competed in all disciplines including going round badminton with pony club youth teams. She has recently qualified and competed at area festivals championships dressage competition and came fifth in medium and elementary in a new partnership with her horse Alfie. Christine is currently working on excelling in medium and advanced medium. 😊

Due to recently becoming a grandmother in January, Christine now takes more of a back seat role in the business. This gives her more time with her own horse and her lovely granddaughter! However she is still teaching and makes regular appearances at the yard to oversee and assist the management team.

Stay tuned for our next team member! 🥰
