Thank you to Shardeloes Farm and the British Horse Society for hosting such an inspiring networking day on Monday.

It was a great reminder of the value of coming together and learning from one another. We really enjoyed the day and the chance to connect with other amazing people that are ‘Changing Lives Through Horses’ 🐴✨

Meet Zorro!

This handsome 15.2hh grey is spending the summer with us and is already making himself at home. With his calm nature and easy-going attitude, he's happiest out exploring the countryside and taking everything in his stride 🐴

Looking for something fun to do this Saturday, 13th June, for your 7–15 year old? Join us for our Leading a Pony Rosette Award session! 🏵

During this 2-hour award session, participants will learn how to safely approach and lead a pony, fit a head collar, and tie a quick-release knot. They will also design their own obstacle course and then lead a pony through it, building confidence and developing their handling skills in a safe and supportive environment.

Every child will earn a unique black and green rosette to take home, celebrating their new skills and growing knowledge of pony care.

Book on our website now to secure your space.

Welcome to Copper 🩶
Our 16.1hh Irish Sport Horse, grey with copper flecks, has recently joined us at Westerlands. After a career in competition, he is now enjoying a quieter, more relaxed pace of life and settling in well. We're very pleased to have him as part of the yard family. 🐴✨

A huge thank you to Jacqui from The British Horse Society for visiting us last week with the weighbridge!

Our Pony Camp participants learned so much about horse welfare, including the importance of maintaining a healthy weight and how to support horses based on their individual needs.

We were also delighted that three of our horses were awarded rosettes for being the ideal weight. Well done to Cody, Galan and Misty! 🏵️

What an amazing pony camp! 🐴✨

We've been hacking, taking part in instructional rides, grooming, tack cleaning, and learning all about horse welfare with the BHS weigh bridge. When the heat turned up, so did the water fights!

So many smiles, laughs, and new friendships were made that we'll all treasure forever.
