Pony Pursuits is a 5-star licensed inclusive riding school based in Heathfield, near Islip, Oxfordshire, with a second site at Sandy Lane, Horspath (just outside Shotover Country Park). Run by Charlotte Marshall (RID0010), the school deliberately breaks the traditional riding-school mould with a personalised, tailored approach to each rider. The stated philosophy is non-elitist, inclusive and affordable, with cost or lack of experience not treated as barriers. Bespoke equestrian activities span lessons, hacking and pony care.

What to wear
Standard guidance for equestrian yards in the UK. Check with your yard if you're unsure.
A correctly fitted hat to current safety standards (PAS 015 or VG1). Bicycle helmets are not permitted. Hats are available to hire, usually reserved for first-time riders.
Boots with a small heel, riding boots, walking boots or wellies all work. Trainers and flat-soled shoes are not permitted for safety reasons.
Close-fitting, weather-appropriate clothes. Shoulders and legs must be covered, no vest tops or shorts. Jackets and coats should be fastened securely. Waterproofs are recommended for outdoor lessons.
Long hair should be tied back in a ponytail before putting on your helmet. All jewellery must be removed before riding.
Clients arriving in unsuitable clothing or footwear may not be permitted to ride, for their own safety. If in doubt, contact the yard before your visit.
