    Do you keep your horse(s) at home or livery?

    I kept my previous horse and current horse on DIY livery for over 14 1/2 years. I always enjoyed doing them myself, even with work but my previous yard didn't have an arena and it was horrible. In October I moved her to full livery to a yard with lovely people, super facilities and it isn't...

    Rider injury- broken tibia and ankle

    Hi, sorry to hear about your injury. It does get better however it does take time. My tibia took 6 months to heal and i still have a lump where the bone has healed. I was back driving 7 weeks post-op and doing my horse (not riding, but poo picking, waters etc) i was hobbling around for months...

    Rider injury- broken tibia and ankle

    Thank you! It’s nice to have some positive stories. I honestly feel like someone has a voodoo doll of me at the moment with the bad luck I’ve had this year! Me and my other half are going to Florida next year, so another incentive to get back on my feet as that is going to be a very active holiday!

    Rider injury- broken tibia and ankle

    Thank you. I was thinking about groundwork when I’m able to, more to keep her mind busy as she thrives from doing things, so I shall have a look at that.

    Rider injury- broken tibia and ankle

    Thank you. I have private health care through work, so I’m starting physio through them. I’m going with someone who has been recommended and helped a fellow rider with a similar injury. Currently I’m on ibuprofen and paracetamol when needed but I’m not taking them as much as I did last week...

    Rider injury- broken tibia and ankle

    Thank you. To be honest, my main concern when it happened was what to do with my horse. It would stress me out more having someone else ride her (she isn’t easy and we have come so far together after our relationship and confidence was ruined by a rubbish instructor). She’s done a lot in the 5...

    Rider injury- broken tibia and ankle

    It’s my left leg but I have a manual, so a bit stuck really! Annoying as it was off the road for 7 weeks as someone drove into the side of it and it was being repaired! This accident happened the day after I got it back! That’s life though I guess. I do have pins and needles in my foot and it...

    Rider injury- broken tibia and ankle

    Thank you. So I don’t have a cast at all, but I have a boot now as of yesterday, it isn’t an air walker boot though. I do have my Ariat short boots so will stick with them as they are comfortable and worn in. I’m still having daily blood thinner injections which are just awful and have them...

    Rider injury- broken tibia and ankle

    Hi all, 3 weeks ago, during a fab XC lesson where we were flying, I had an unfortunate fall after a fence when I tried to save myself, landed on my feet, heard a massive crack and after being taken to hospital it was confirmed that I have broken my ankle and tibia. I had surgery 2 days later...
