EVENTS CO-ORDINATOR & Vice Chairman
Tam Thornton
email Tam
Tam is Caron's full time PA.
Always wanted to have a go at eventing but never had the right horse, until now. Tam says 'My riding has progressed so much since finding Caron and having regular lessons. Icing on the cake has been Caron matching me with my new horse ‘Lady’, enabling me to compete. Got a double clear in our first BE90!!'
