EJS Equine Education
'I aim to be able to help people have the relationship with their horses that they dream of.'
Because of this, education is important, it spreads valuable information about welfare and aids people to reach their own personal goals with their horses and donkeys making it much more enjoyable to own these incredible creatures.
