I’d just like to add that this course is ace. Snap it up - particularly with the current offer! I work as a full time safety professional (don’t yawn yet...) and first saw it about four years ago. I was gobsmacked at how good it is. I come across many organisations trying to sell safety training across a whole range of industries. Sadly a lot of it is dull and uninspiring although it generally does the job. This course is different and the model could be used across many industries - it’s that good. The great thing about it is that you can do it at your yard - when it suits you. It’s a well balanced blend of theoretical and practical training supported by really good course materials. It leads to a nationally accredited qualification. What’s more it’s heavily subsidised and costs only £40 to sign up – the cost includes all course materials and examination fees. The course also has endorsement from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).

Before you’re wondering, no I don’t work for Equi Study. No I’m not being paid to write this. This is an independent and impartial review. I just hope that more people do get on the course – it’s a hidden gem.

Please do remember that being well informed and effectively trained when around horses is so important – it can save a life, or a lifetime of incapacity.

I would just like to say that I did this course last year and it was really good. Not about boring H&S stuff more about avoiding accidents with your horse which given the cost of vets bills etc is a really helpful idea. Best of all was meeting Tim Stockdale. He is such a great guy, a few of us went from our yard and I think we all left thinking he was the nicest person we ever met. I am only sorry I can't do it again this year as I would love to walk the course at Olympia with Tim!!!!!
