I am a huge enthusiast of the New Forest and not only ‘run ponies on the forest’ as a ‘commoner’ but have also for many years competed with great success on these wonderful ponies.I am on the panel of New Forest pony judges and chairperson of the New Forest Pony Breeding and Cattle Society which has taken me to Europe and Scandinavia judging and promoting the ponies. I am also a keen photographer and enjoy exploring the forest with my camera My talks give me the perfect excuse to share my enthusiasm both for the ponies,the forest and for my photography! I have been giving my talks for four years and have always received excellent reviews. Although my profile notes the South East I am based SO41 area and cannot travel out of Hampshire beyond Portsmouth
