It’s WellDoneWednesday time!

We’d also like to take this opportunity to wish Julie Howells the best of luck as she embarks on a new journey. Julie started at the BRS in 2015 just teaching HOP and yesterday was her final day as assistant to the FLP Programme. Thank you Julie!
Let us know if you’ve completed a qualification, led up a winner, had a promotion – we’d love to know and celebrate your successes
There’s a lot to learn…
.
Did you know that throughout our residential course the trainees wear an ear piece so they can receive instruction whilst riding. Not only is this a great way to learn and react to what’s happening with the horse you’re on, it also improves the safety for both horse and rider.
.
As well as this, on the straight gallop, our instructors drive alongside the gallop delivering instructions and then pass on additional feedback when they’re walking home (pictured). Riding a racehorse at speed is a skill that takes training and practice
We’re delighted to announce that today we were awarded the “excellence in Safeguarding award” at the SAFEcic conference
