With a drought declared in parts of the UK and temporary use bans on hosepipes, we are being asked to do our part to use less water.

ℹWhat does this mean for horse owners?

If you are in an area with a ban on hosepipe use you are still permitted to use them for the welfare of animals –

✅You can continue to wash your horses off with a hosepipe
✅ You can keep using a hosepipe to fill your water buckets
✅ Do be more mindful about water use – turn taps off properly and don’t let buckets or troughs overflow, report leaks as soon as you see them!
✅ Do recycle your water by using it to water plants etc when emptying buckets
❌ Don’t abuse how your read the rules – for instance; you are permitted to wash the inside of your lorry or trailer using a hosepipe, but washing the outside is not necessary for the welfare of your animals so would not be permitted.
✅ If you are not sure if you are in an area with a temporary hosepipe ban, do check with your local water provider.

Wow!

Take a look at this! Although.. I would suggest new music… 😜😂

💥 Music Class Announcement 💥

It was always our intention to set our music classes with times that meant existing music could be used for our July show.

The time allowed for music classes at levels 3-6 is 4-5 minutes. At Prix St Georges it is 4 1/2 to 5 minutes. The Grand Prix states 5 1/2 to 6 minutes, but in order that people can use music they have from other levels we will allow anything from 5-6 minutes. This means that there is no need to get new music produced.

Really excited to announce that Diamond Freestyles will be providing the music for Her Majesty.

The Queen will this year ride a dressage test to music at the Royal Windsor Horse Show, to celebrate her Platinum Jubilee 🙌🏼

We have been commissioned to design and fit her tailcoat and today she will visit us for her final fitting 🤞🏼

There is nervousness and excitement amongst us as we prepare for the visit. The fabric is a luxurious silk and fine Italian wool blend, encrusted with real diamonds. We are hoping it will be worthy of the royal warrant - what do you think?

Do you want to help Ukrainian horses and owners caught in the crisis created by Russian conflict?

We've teamed up with The British Horse Society, British Equestrian Trade Association (BETA) and World Horse Welfare, with support from member bodies across the equestrian industry, to set up 'British Equestrians for Ukraine'. The group will help to facilitate a supply chain to meet the immediate demand for goods such as haylage, feed and bedding, as well as raise money to fund aid directly where it’s needed most.

Pretty cold after the Pole clinic this morning so popped in to ChocTilly’s new shop in Much Wenlock on the way home for a coffee!

26/02/2022

Dancing with poles again! Starting out very chill this morning, with piano tunes… once the riders have warmed up we will go full disco!

17/02/2022

Yeah! Exactly!

'It doesn’t matter if you’re jumping 20cm or 1.2m – you still left the ground, you still did it'

16/02/2022

Popped into ChocTilly this morning for a hot chocolate and some treats! Highly recommend the new hot chocolates so yummy! That’s why I look so crazy!

Also amazing eco cups, no plastic takeaways! Brilliant!
