Nativity Service, Sunday 13th December

The annual Nativity Service was very well attended with more than 300 people celebrating Christmas with a very traditional Service. This was followed by mince pies and mulled wine, kindly supplied by Sainsburys of Loughton.

There are lots of wonderful photographs to look at in the slideshow to the right, there is a full screen option on the lower right.

Thank you to Sainsburys

A generous donation from Sainsbury's of Loughton. Chigwell Riding Trust is the chosen charity of Sainsbury's of Loughton for a whole year. In addition to financial support the horses receive a large case of fruit and vegetables every week. A huge thank you to Sainsbury's.

Deborah meets a very important person

Wednesday 15 July, Deborah receiving her MBE from Her Majesty The Queen. This was a wonderful occasion, held in the Ballroom of Buckingham Palace.

In the unlikely event that there is someone out there who does not know her, Deborah has been the Manager of Chigwell Riding Trust for about twenty five years.

All work and no play makes ....

Our horses and ponies like the occasional day at the seaside. Here at a secret location on the east coast they have miles of open beach to play on. (The staff probably enjoyed the day out as well).

Open Day

The annual Open Day was a great success. The event was well attended and everyone enjoyed themselves. The picture to the left shows Sophie riding Roger.
