CLEAR ROUND CROSS COUNTRY MUST ALSO BE BOOKED IN ADVANCE. BOOKINGS AND CANCELLATIONS MUST BE MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DETAILS PRINTED IN THE NEWSLETTER AND AS SET OUT BELOW. PAYMENT MUST BE MADE IN ADVANCE OF THE SESSION UNLESS OTHERWISE ARRANGED. IF YOU DO HAVE TO CANCEL YOU WILL STILL HAVE TO PAY UNLESS YOUR PLACE CAN BE FILLED BY ANYONE ELSE. ALTHOUGH THIS MAY SEEM UNFAIR, IT IS NOT FAIR FOR OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE TO PAY MORE MONEY WITHOUT SUFFICIENT NOTICE. SCHOOLING SESSIONSRegular Sessions are held with:
MEMBERS ONLY SCHOOLING SESSIONS
What’s this bit in bold all about? It’s to remind existing members and to tell new members about booking places on any of our lessons or training sessions. If you’re not sure about which ones to try, just call the organiser (No telephone calls after 9pm please). They will be able to tell you all about it and help you decide if it’s right for you. Then, you need to send them a cheque for that amount, made out to BDRC, which will guarantee your place on the lesson, which can’t be held until payment is received. If you can’t send a cheque, you should arrange cash payment with the organiser.
Simple, isn’t it! But here’s the tricky bit. If you find that you can’t make it to the lesson you should let the organiser know AS SOON AS POSSIBLE (and not half an hour before the lesson!) If they have a waiting list, or they have time to find someone to fill your place, you won’t have to pay a thing. However, if you don’t give us enough notice, you will have to pay. AND IF YOU BOOK A TRAINING SESSION, DON’T PAY AND THEN JUST DON’T TURN UP, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BOOK OR ENTER ANYTHING ELSE UNTIL YOU’VE PAID WHAT YOU OWE.
The same goes for competitions. If you enter and then find that you can’t come, please let us know. If we have a waiting list and can fill your place, your entry fee will be fully refunded.

FLATWORK OR JUMPING LESSONS WITH CHARLOTTE JACKSON AT WEIR FARM, EAST HANNEY
Many people know of Charlotte Jackson as she regularly judges for BDRC, taught at camp this year and runs Ambitions Equestrian Centre.
Charlotte gained a National Diploma in equine studies from Hartpury College and a HND in equine science from Witney College, where she was awarded student of the year. She has had extensive experience in a number of fields, including working in a racing stable, breaking and retraining race horses, show jumping, team chasing and showing, to name but a few.
In 2006, she started Ambitions Equestrian Centre, very much a family run business known to many because of pony club activities, where the main aim is to provide quality lessons on well trained horses.
Charlotte currently competes with her horse Saab (commonly known as Splodge), at Medium level, having bought him as an unbroken three year old. At four, they were talented spotted by Pammy Hutton, who they subsequently coached them. She currently trains with Grand Prix rider Jodie Lister and Gareth Hughes. Together Charlotte and Splodge have won the preliminary winter championships when he was 6, and they were fifth in the novice summer championships the following year. She has recently qualified for the elementary and medium regional qualifiers.
Although her first love is dressage, she also enjoys teaches show jumping and cross country. Flatwork or jumping lessons will be held at Weir Farm in East Hanney. It has a 50 x 20 all weather arena, a separate jumping paddock (weather dependent!) and adequate parking.
Charlotte will teach private or shared lessons (between 2) and is willing to teach any level, from confidence gaining to competition training.
Prices are based on £30 per hour + £5 per horse per hour for school hire 30 mins private - £17.50, 45 mins private - £26.25, 60 mins shared - £20
