Bitting advice/ consultation Berkshire/ Oxfordshire

[Spangles]

I am looking for someone to come out and look at a couple of horses to check current bits and advise on any changes to suit the horse for comfort and performance.

We are based in Berkshire, not far from the Oxfordshire border. North Hampshire is about 30 minutes away too if anyone has any recommendations that way ?

I had a consultation with LAW bitting solutions and was very happy with both the session and the bit I purchased. That was at Fairoak Grange which is on the Hampshire/Berkshire border (they ran a group session, but I am sure they do private ones as well). FB page: https://www.facebook.com/bittingsolutions/

Last year I went to a Hilary Vernon bitting clinic and thought she was excellent. She does do clinics in the area - worth asking her if there is not already something close to you... http://www.informeddesigns.co.uk/blog--calendar

I've also been to a Hilary Vernon clinic as a spectator (a couple of friends' horses were there). I thought she was excellent, but travels around a fair amount so is hard to pin down unless you have a group and book well in advance. Laura (LAW Bitting Solutions) works in conjunction with Informed Designs (Hilary's company) and sells their bits. The preamble that Laura did was essentially the same as Hilary's. Hope that helps OP.

We had a consultant from horse bit fit come to the yard. She was very knowledgeable and recommended a bit that my mare is going well in. They have a fb page and cover the whole country.
