Not sure if this is up to date, but according to the list the nearest Recommended Associate is in Northumberland.

I'm sure there would be no harm in contacting Intelligent Horsemanship directly (phone and email at top of page), if you wanted.

Very helpful - thank you!

If it's just for catching and haltering you could use clicker training. It's very straight forward and tends to work well. Normally the more difficult the horse the brighter it is so can pick up this kind of training well.

Great, thank you! This has been suggested to me so will give it a go too.

There is also Lucy Simpson in the borders, she definitely covers Edinburgh, she is not part of IH, but trained directly with Monty Roberts.

Have heard good things about Gemma Pearson from Dick vet from a few different sources and a friend had her help with her youngster when a few issues arose.
