Hi everyone, Spirit and I have so far started out our New Year very well. We have our first demonstration booked in at Tumpy Green Equestrian Centre in Dursley Gloucestershire at 3pm on the 21st April! I will be signing copies of my book and telling my story of how horses have saved me. Tickets are £3 each on the door if anyone would like to come along, it would be awesome to see you! We are also looking into doing riding for the disabled so that I can teach spirit. I would also like to learn dressage with her and have fun in a more supportive environment. Attached are photos from my 29th birthday party which featured a horse agility theme. I was able to invite my new friends to join me along with their horses. We are in the planning stages of my film which will go alongside my book. We will start filming for this scene with the horse whisperer, Monty Roberts, among others. We are hoping to be able to tell my story both in a film and in the book so that people who can’t read or find reading difficult, can still be inspired. I've just returned from a successful training and autism talk in Cardiff helping to teach charity fundraisers about autism and to help them see the difference they are making, in addition to raising some funds. Hope everybody is doing well and Spirit and I will see you shortly! Take care and hopefully we will meet soon, Charlie.
