Really?! That's quite a claim. I'll have to look into that.

Pretty sure if that cannot repair you get some money towards a new hat as long as its within a specific time period (either 3 or 5 years I think...)

That is pretty impressive. Personally I will stick to my eighty quid Charles Owen skull caps, but if you want something more stylish this seems like a really good idea.Yup they do refurbish

I saw that gofund me for a new hat, for £150? They mention ODEs and XC clinics in the GF page, if they are doing this why can't they afford £150 for a new hat, why should other people pay for it?! Also mentions rider cannot do stuff without the new hat, but the hat she was wearing was a fixed peaked hat, so can't be used for XC - so she must have a skull cap too?! For some reason it really gripped my sh*t... Amongst many other things

Just fully rubbed me the wrong way. And surely if you are that worried your horse has something wrong with them, you wont be competing anytime soon so the skull cap will be fine for the time being

It popped up on my FB and my first though was if you can't afford a new hat, how can you afford to keep a horse and enter competitions. Second thought was how will you fund any unexpected vets bills?I saw that gofund me for a new hat, for £150?

Mine has torn the bum out of her SI rug, can anyone chip in for the £75 for a new one. No reason, I have £75, but if someone could give me it that would be nice. I'll post a fail video of her with her bum out as recompense.

Probably true!
I wouldn't have the nerve to ask someone else to fund my hobby!
I actually wish I did. I could do so many other activities!

The backlash is coming in hard on FB and the rider is very audibly saying that she didn’t ask for the go fund me and other people asked her to put it up 
. Doesn’t mean you actually have to do it though.

If you suddenly find that your moral values have taken a turn for the better and decide that begging is no longer for you, there's nothing to stop you donating the money to an appropriate charity .

I do love it when people backtrack rapidly and claim they never did something, or someone else made them do it. Or just don’t understand what ‘asking for charity’ actually is.

I'm just not sure about 'serious head injury' (given that a family member has experienced one)...if it was that serious, would you be at home?
I don't want to sound horrible but I associate '*serious* head injury' with neurosurgery/extended recovery/rehab etc.

It was a nasty fall but it seems she was pretty lucky, broken nose and concussion, bit weird the docs pounding on her chest when she collapsed outside the ward but it sounds exciting

Still wittering on
GFM is weird - kind of a 'something horrible has happened. So can I have some money" mindset. Just why?

Interestingly it had been in harness so a plan b was obviously considered and rejected!
