I would like to say a big thank you to everyone who assisted me following my fall from my horse whilst attempting to jump some straw bales!! I fell off as my horse shot to the side, then he galloped across four fields where another rider was kind enough to catch him for me. I had banged my head and as I had history of severe concussion previously I knew I had to ask the first aider if I was okay. The first response people advised me strongly not to continue the ride so they took me back to the start whilst the organisers son rode him back for me. Then a couple of ladies who were parked next to me in the field were so kind and washed him down for me, rugged him up and loaded him onto my trailer, then sat me down and offered me food and drink whilst I waited for my partner and father to arrive and tow us home! I just wanted to say if you know these kind people please pass on my grateful thanks to them. THe two ladies were called Jo and Lalie (hope I've spelt that right). Thank you so much. I got checked out at A&E later that day and was pronounced fine. Took Bailey to hire facilities the next day and jumped over poles and haven't lost confidence. Phew xx
