One of our riders,Cristina Silva and Coach Sue Wilson were selected to represent Special Olympics Portugal at the 2nd Equestrian Gran Prix organised by Special Olympics Monaco.
The whole event was very well organised,the atmosphere was fantastic with lovely people and great horses.
We have to give a special mention to Kalli,the lovely sweet mare that Cristina rode and she felt at home with right from when they first met.❤️
All of this is fruit of years of work with all our volunteers being part of the journey,without you ,none of this would be possible 🙏
Enjoy some photos of the event…

What a lovely day we had yesterday at Pinetrees Riding in Almancil participating in their Easter Show which was kindly sponsored by Sandy Blue.
Great atmosphere with the children having a fantastic day.
Pandora and Penny put a bit of spice to things but all of the girls rode beautifully and deserved the prizes they won.
Thankyou Bev and your team and also the lovely judge who had a long day but managed to make time to give encouraging words to all of the riders.

Yesterday we took some of our horses (and ponies) to Bensafrim to be blessed by Padre Nelson as part of the celebration of the International day of the animals.
They all behaved beautifully and had a ride around the village,stopping of for refreshments at the Associação Equestre de Bensafrim,who organised this lovely event 👌
