G.O. EQUESTRIAN CLUB C.I.C.

For 2022 we are launching GO Equestrian Club CIC.  This is a Non-profit company that will raise awareness of invisible disabilities and health conditions.Then promoting the benefits to those conditions that simply being around horses, carriage driving and horse riding can bring. Horse riding removes concussion from arthritic joins and improves suppleness as well as helping coordination, stimulating the mind. Carriage Driving offers further benefits to those with more challenging movement disorders. We use cones courses and obstacles for clients to learn and negotiate.
Membership is offered to our Plumtree clients that wish to be involved with raising awareness of invisible disabilities and health conditions. There is an annual membership fee, then a fee to join in with activities such as, dressage competitions, showing competitions, carriage driving training and hacking in Everton. There will be merchandise available with the wording
" Invisible disabilities can look like me ........ Please be Kind".

We will hold monthly meetings either in person or via Zoom to discuss the clubs future plans, training, competitions and to discuss where monies raised will be spent. For more information please ask either Gemma, Katy or Karen.

Trix 2019 

We are very excited to be starting the outdoor season this Sunday 26th May with the Poachers Harness Club. Fingers crossed for great weather. This season Karen Halbert will be my backslapper, believe me, she's just as excited as me to get this season started, it feels like a long winter

Our pony rides are proving to be really popular with our younger clients. We feel that its a lovely introduction to riding, without the pressure of a formal fully structured private lesson. Please either call, or email for any further information

Welcome to our site

My name is Gemma Owens  and I have been a qualified Instructor for over 20yrs, producing and successfuly competing my own horses at affilliated showjumping, eventing, dressage and driving trials. My love and passion is dressage and I have produced horses from breaking, through to Medium Level. My second love is carriage driving and I have produced my ponies and horses, again from breaking up to National Advanced Pony Pairs, Open Horse classes. Recently I've competed a pony team, this is my new love. Driving a team takes lots of time, both to train the ponies and then to put together the ones that work happily together. Through the winter of 2017 we had a lovely team. However, during the summer months one pony suffered with hay fever and another pony suffers badly coming into season, neither could be driven. Therefore, back to the drawing board.

We started the riding school in 2004, our aim being to bridge the gap from learning to ride to horse ownership. All our horses are experienced schoolmasters and can teach from beginners to advanced clients. We pride ourselves in maintaining our horses education and schooling. This gives us a unique quality in that our staff train the horses that they teach with.  At Plumtree our philosphy has been to have competition horses that work in the riding school, ensuring that our customers ride very well educated horses and ponies. We have taken that one stage further by breeding horses both for competing and to work in the riding school.

  We love sharing our passion of  horses and encouraging  people to experience all aspects of the amazing relationships that horses allow us to develop with them.

Our mission statement being ' Take your passion and make it happen '.

 

EQUINE INTERACTION THERAPY 

It is no secret, that I have disabilities and conditions, that I have to continuously balance, on a day to day and even sometimes hour by hour basis.

I try to maintain my natural optimism and keep thinking forward taking each day at a time. Unfortunately, I can be bedridden for days at a time in excruciating pain.

One of a few aspects of my life ,that I consider myself to be very fortunate with, is my love, devotion and relationships with my horses.

They can be a calming influence when you're stressed and they can motivate you in ways that you wouldn't think possible. It is my connection with them, that has given me the strength to keep fighting to have a quality of life.

I often think, how can I help people that suffer with similar conditions, then I thought, what better way than to share the very best medicine that there is in the world.............Interacting with Equines.
