Acorn & squirrels of Exeter

@EleanorHalton @britishdressage @BictonCollege Well done! I look forward to meeting Angel xx

We started riding again on Tuesday and Poppy back riding Little Rosie for the first time in a year - just brilliant!!

Don’t forget the Southwest Region Art Competition - entries close 8th February!!

We should have started term today, sadly not to be! Hope to see everyone very soon - fingers crossed!

Happy Easter to all our RDA friends wherever you are! With all best wishes, Acorn & Squirrels of Exeter Group x

Before we stopped our Group sessions this morning Lilly guessed there were 115 Easter eggs in the Easter egg jar!! We will keep all our riders informed as to when we can start riding again. Be safe and healthy, Sue

Good to be back after the Christmas holidays - Five very happy riders!!

Last ride of the term for Pearl and Brandon from WESC. Pearl was presented with the Hannah Batterbee Trophy for Endeavour and Brandon the Most Improved Rider Trophy. Really well done to you both, happy Christmas and see you next term!

Very sad news, we had to have our wonderful pony Will put down this afternoon. He had been unwell for a short time. He served us so well over the last eight years and he was a firm favourite with our riders. Rest in peace Will. X

Having had her left leg amputated Linda started riding with us four months ago and is doing really well. Best dismount yet- fantastic!!
