Sue is an Amateur Owner who says she is lucky enough to keep her horses at home on the farm and her horses are totally home produced. In her words: this means all my mistakes are my own, but I’ve had great fun making them.

I joined the BSHA when my husband bought, what will probably be, my cob of a life time, Goldburg. Through competing him I made a great many new friends and found I really enjoyed showing.

At a time when the Amateurs where not represented on the Board, I was encouraged to stand for election and have very much enjoyed my years in office. I am the Coordinator with Grandstand Media for HOYS, Sponsorship organiser for the National Championship Show and HOYS and as past secretary am on organising committee of BSHA Spring Show and have instigated the Maxi cob class at the RIHS.

“If you have time to commit and want to have an input into the future of your Association, then why not bite the bullet like me and stand for election. It’s really not that scary and you may, like me, enjoy it!”.
