Recommend me a saddle fitter South West

[OFG]

in Bristol / Bath / Somerset area.

Really need to reassess saddle situation with a broad Sec A. Had saddle fitter come out last year and although pony doesn't look an odd shape we found that nothing really fitted her correctly. The best fit we could find was the Thorowgood PC saddle which I already had for another pony.

It was slightly narrow on the shoulder but was deemed OK for short hacks and a little bit of trotting.

Have since stopped using it though as the pony was very unhappy in it and have bought a felt pad instead.

However, would like to have a conventional saddle for showing / jumping.

Thanks

How about Pointings (Bath)? Or Chris Puddy (Farnborough area)?

ETA - have not used myself but heard good feedback about both

Lavinia Mitchell is an independent remedial saddler fitter based near Marlborough, but travels all over the UK. She is brilliant and very thorough.
