Meet the team

Charley Farrell

Karen’s daughter, and general helper/groom. Charley has worked on several professional yards including a riding school, livery yard, and an equine assisted learning centre. Charley has her BHS Stage 1 and 2, as well as her level 3 diploma from Hartpury College.

Although Charley doesn’t get involved in the delivery of the sessions, she is always about on the yard, tending to the horses and driving about in her tractor!

  • ‘I’ve always admired how attentive horses are, that no matter what they can always tell when you need a hug, or a bit of excitement in your life! I also love a good canter through the countryside, it beats anything else and always puts the biggest smile on my face.’

  • ‘For me, its watching my mum live out her dreams. She has always wanted to be able to pilot a programme like this, and I couldn’t be prouder that she has been able to set this all up. Witnessing her come alive when delivering sessions is magical.’

  • ‘I work at a dairy farm, so I spend a lot of time milking cows! When I’m not working, I’m either out walking my dog, reading a good book, or spending time with my friends. We all enjoy going to country shows and watching live music.’

A woman wearing a blue riding helmet smiles as she stands next to a brown horse adorned with a pink and blue ribbon on its head. The woman is dressed in a black jacket, and the horse has a blue saddle blanket.
