Grooms Training

Following us advertising our Groom's Training and introducing the Level 1 syllabus and badges we were contacted by a member of the BHDTA council to advise us not to issue any badges or certificates.

Currently the BHDTA do not support this initiative and they are reviewing it at their next meeting on Jan 17th.

Although we announced that it had been postponed due to the disappointment of member we would still like to offer the groom's training as planned but we will not be able to give out any badges etc at this stage.

I hope you will still want to come on the day and I will just reimburse you the £5 for the badge. If you do not still want to come I can either tear up the cheque of send it back to you or get the cash to you some way.

I apologise for this but was unaware of the situation with the BHDTA but the committee have taken the decision to wait until further comments from the BHDTA.

A good day was had by all that attended the Mini Indoor event, everyone behave themselves, including Donna's other half!!! and her new pony and Glenda's new pony. A write up will be in the next newsletter due out later this month.

Also a big thank you goes to Barry and Leonie Marshall for putting all the wine and chocolates up as prizes which was really appreciated by everyone!
