Dear RDA UK volunteers and staff,

I hope you had a good Bank Holiday Weekend and, if you were meeting outdoors, that you survived whatever random Spring weather came your way.

Thanks to all the Regional Showjumping Reps attending tonight’s meeting with National Lead Sally-Anne O’Neill – and to you too, Sally, of course. I hope it goes well.

 

30-minute webinar

Tomorrow: 6 May, 7pm, Buying Equines

RDA Honorary Vet Nick Hart and Emma Baylis discuss the dos and don’ts of equine purchase. A group with recent experience of buying RDA horses will also share their advice.

Register at: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_rB17oRf9RIWxM9R2vMHrFw  

Next Thursday, 13 May, A week off!

Since I’m at least a day behind with everything this week, there is no webinar planned for next week. You can have the evening off - unless you’d like to volunteer to present one (that’s a serious request!), in which case please let me know in time for tomorrow’s email to groups.

Stella Hancock Award – a note from National Carriage Driving Lead, Eileen Cornish

Congratulations to Shifford Driving Group in the South Region for being awarded the Stella Hancock Award of £150 towards the training of a new coach for their group. I look forward to her joining the CD Coach ranks in the not-too-distant future once her assessment is completed.

 

That’s all this week. Best wishes and stay safe,

Caroline
