We are pleased to announce our Sponsored Riders for 2021
Ellie Jenkins
I am a 22 year old Commercial Account Manager for a reinstatement company called Ferns Group. In my spare time I am an Affiliated Dressage rider based at a lovely yard in Eynsford.
I am very lucky to have two competition horses, Chatcho who is 20 this year and successfully came back from a 3 year career break last year and Brienne, a 4 year old PRE who will start her competition career this year at Speedgate. These shows are so well run and very calm for a youngster and for me too!
Speedgate has supported me in so many ways over the years, from giving me advise on what is the best calmer, helping me measure bits and advising me on which clippers to buy and how to use them so I’m really pleased to be giving something back and working with them as a Sponsored Rider.
I have two very active social media accounts – My Facebook page (EJJDressage) and my Instagram page (elliejaynejenkinsdressage). I update both weekly with highs and lows of my equestrian world.
Mia Kirby
I’m a 22 year old rider based in Dartford and have my own horse, Lola, who I’ve brought on from being unrideable to competing BD. Last year we qualified for Prelim Area Festivals and Regionals in our first 3 BD shows. We plan to move up to Novice/ Elementary this year with no intentions of stopping there!
Speedgate has always been my go to company for feed, tack and competitions so I’m very happy to be sponsored by them this year; without the people and products, Lola and I would not be where we are today so now is the time to give something back in return for all the help I’ve received.
I am very active on Facebook (Mia Kirby) and Instagram (miakirbyequestrian) and also use TikTok (miakirby36). Through these accounts I have documented my journey with Lola, receiving lots of messages from people who have heard about her.
We can’t wait to follow their progress this season, and very much look forwards to working with them!
