We overheard a visitor to the yard innocently asking this the other day and it’s prompted me to write this month’s blog on behalf of the rest of the pony team.

Cindy is one of our volunteers and an energetic fundraiser for us. Last month it was a sponsored walk, very much on home territory in our beloved Bushy Park.

It’s hard to remember the age I was when I met Prodney but I think around 17. He was a livery at the stables where I would loiter hoping for a ride. When I saw him, my heart skipped a beat and I was well and truly in love.

Local company H&L Motors have been loyal supporters of Park Lane Stables for many years. In this very personal article, H&L’s Jonathon Laney explains why this is a very special relationship.

Arun volunteers five days a week and is a calm, quiet presence. He also happens to be super-strong so becomes even more popular when heavy hay bales need moving!
