“We’re incredibly proud of them.”
Six newcomers have joined the ranks of Society of Master Saddlers (SMS) Saddle Fitters.
Rachael Duke, Shannon Rodway, Caitlin Porter, Caitlin Berg, Francesca Wasik and Susie Pile are now fully-qualified SMS Saddle Fitters.
The qualification is widely recognised across the equestrian world as the gold standard for professional saddle fitting.
SMS Saddle Fitter status is achieved via years of training, continued learning and hands-on experience, followed by a final assessment.
“We’re incredibly proud of these six newly-qualified fitters," said Helen Reader, SMS saddle fitting course leader.
"Their hard work and passion for doing the best for horse and rider is truly inspiring, and they are a fantastic addition to the network of professional SMS Saddle Fitters."
