Horse & Pony Care Area Competition 

Monday 4th May 2026

Nine members demonstrated their extensive knowledge and practical horsemanship skills at the Area 12 Horse and Pony Care Qualifiers today.

Junior teams:
5th – Olivia, Emily and Christopher
8th – Belle, Maddie and Tilly

Senior team:
1st – Amelia, Ella and Lucy

It was the branches first time competing in this competition, and with 15 experienced teams in the junior section, we are delighted with the placings.

Our senior team have qualified for National Championships at Offchurch Bury, which is just incredible.

Sarah Buddin has trained teams that any horse or pony would be lucky to have these members caring for them.

Thank you Teresa Wilks for giving up your bank holiday to volunteer.

⭐️ 2026 Horse and Pony Care has been a huge success, well done to you all ⭐️
