I am moving my daughter riding schools since people were rude to her. She loaned there and I wondered if anyone knew somewhere that we could go.
 
Another loan it doesn't need to be at a riding school it is just I don't have horsey parents and they won't let me loan as most adverts need horsey parents and they don't think I can do it all by myslef but if there is a certain pony/horse than they will consider it. Please message if you have a 13.2 dream pony near Reigate for sharing/part loan.

I am a bit confused about who is posting here - the parent or the daughter?

Either way I don't think you will find an owner willing to loan to someone young without horsey parents unless you have clear support from someone with experience. You might find a share, but bear in mind you are coming up to the summer holidays when ponies get pretty busy with camp and other activities.

I'm too far away to know much about the yards/schools in your area. The nearest riding school I know of nearish you is Wildwoods in Headley, which is really good. It also offers pony club activities in the holidays.
 
You (assuming you are the daughter) sound rather young.

Under 18s are, for instance, not able to sign the British Horse Society loan agreement for legal reasons, an adult would have to do it on the minor’s behalf. If your parents are not on board, and are not happy to sign that or a similar loan agreement, it will be very difficult to find a formal loan if you are under 18.

If there is a riding school where you can get known and involved, and get a reputation for being competent and helpful, you might make useful contacts that way.

Or you could stay where you are. Where ever you go people will be rude to you again, often, so learning to deal with it is as useful for your future riding career as learning to canter.

This! From your posts you appear to be very young, and I get that friendships and emotions can be very difficult to navigate as a young person. If the only issue with your current situation is people being a bit rude, use it as a learning opportunity to grow a thicker skin, ignore the rude people and carry on enjoying your loan pony. It will certainly stand to you in the long term if you plan to stay in the equestrian world!

Seriously?! Yes the horse world is full of rude people but maybe a hint of support to the OP 🥺
 
If you can't find a loan, and still want to ride, then you should try White Lane Farm riding school in Albury. It's got lovely ponies and a very experienced owner, who I would imagine, wouldn't tolerate rudeness on her yard. Nice big school, lovely hacking and very reasonable rates.

Sorry for the confusion. I wish I was a child again. I am a mother and I struggled with the horsey world since my parents aren't horsey at all. My daughter is just wanting and a loan and if anyone knows someone who would do a private loan and has a pony available that she could loan a couple of days a week.

Yes I know but she is also just ready to move on to a better pony since the one she shares currently is quite old now and she wants to start doing some evnting.
