Loan/Share a pony Scheme

Share/Loan A Pony

Great Trethew Stables Share Scheme is aimed at would be horse owners and at those people who have insufficient time to dedicate to owning their own horse or pony. It is particularly suitable for young people who want their own pony but who are still reliant upon their parents to help them to manage this. It is a huge learning experience and can be great fun!

Each contract will run for 4 weeks.  The cost to the share owner will be £50 per week.

Included in this cost will be 3 sessions (2 ridden 1 caring).  Sharers can choose their sessions from the following Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays 3.30pm to 5.30pm and a Sunday 1pm to 4pm.  The Sunday session is within our riding school opening hours as all ponies are used on a regular basis in the riding school, please note we can not guarantee who you will ride on this session.  Week day sessions are with your chosen pony.

The share owner will have the responsibility to groom, tack up and untack the pony on each of the 2 riding occasions mentioned above.

The sharer owner will have the responsibility of looking after the stable for the pony on each visit.

The share owner will have the responsibility of feeding the pony on each visit.  The share owner will be responsible for bringing in pony and/or turn out.

There will always be supervision on the yard and someone to ask for help or advice. The stable management lessons will cover all of the basic knowledge needed to help to ensure that you and your pony will each benefit from this relationship.
