VICKY COLLINS

Vicky is the backbone of the everything that goes on at our home base in East Sussex. Vicky is a well known name on the Eventing circuit, having ridden successfully to 4* and shortlisted for the Atlanta Olympics 1996 on her homebred Welton Molecule. She is definition of a grafter – someone who has made everything from nothing! Chief lorry driver, groom, trainer, mentor, supporter and owner…Felicity wouldn't be where she is now without her.

Frankie marsom

Apprentice

Frankie joined us as full time groom under an apprenticeship at the start of 2022. She has jumped in with both feet first into a busy yard environment and is already an asset to our team. She will travel with us to competitions as well as daily yard duties and helping with hacking and fitness work of the competition horses - all whilst working towards an equine grooming qualification.

Part time groom

Liberty joined us in the autumn of 2021 and has slotted in seamlessly as part time groom around studying for her veterinary nursing degree. She also comes for training with Felicity on her ex racer, George, who she events at grassroots level.

CLAIRE PENFOLD

Freelance Groom

Claire is one of our long standing DIY liveries, and doubles up with being  a great help in covering the yard for us when we are away at competitions or need an extra hand. Claire also has a third interest in our team as an owner of Dantastic, a horse Felicity occasionally competes on her behalf. She is brilliant with all of our horses, and is usually seen whizzing round the yard quicker than the speed of light!

CAROLINE MOORE

Trainer

Caroline has been training Felicity since 2013, and is not only an incredible coach but a mentor too. Being the Junior Team Coach, Caroline helped Felicity & RSH Contend'Or to perform to their best at the European Championships 2016. She plays a fundamental role and is always on hand for help or advice. Caroline continues to be a large part of Felicity’s (and the horses) progression up the levels in the senior ranks.

GARETH RICH

Farrier

Gareth is our long standing farrier, he shoes the horses beautifully and is always on hand to help in an emergency. Gareth is a key team member and never misses a beat, we know our horses comfort and performance is just as important to Gareth as it is to us. He is a vital part of any of our success stories - as the saying goes, ‘no foot, no horse’.
