Hello Enlighteneds!
Been lurking, occasionally, for ages... and can't write for long now as I have about 20 school reports to write in the next 30 hours (groan, another all-nighter here we come).
Anyway - looking forward to posting occasionally but reading regularly (have gleaned so much from this site already).
But if I may be so cheeky, please might I share a request for support from the Ebony Horse Club? They are a super charity enabling underprivileged children around Brixton etc. to learn to ride at various locations around London. Having moonlighted in London riding schools these last few years, I've had the pleasure of teaching these kids a handful of times at my last two places. They really are fantastic kids and so up for learning. The experiences they get through Ebony are truly life changing.
The link below, if you scroll down just a little, allows you to vote with just one click. There's a bit of blurb I've copied underneath. Please vote by 26th June and maybe pass along your emails if you have more than just a moment.
Thank you so much... I'm really sorry for just storming in like this with a request, and I acknowledge that some folk can be a little dubious about riding schools... but I'd just like to say that there is some pretty inspiring teaching going on in some of them and some really passionate, dedicated, would-be horsepeople are coming up who would never otherwise have the chance to love these amazing creatures.
