Jo Milnes who manages West End Farm has been around
horses most of her life. Having progressed through the Pony Club which she
represented at most disciplines from Prince Philip Cup to Eventing. On leaving
school she spent time gaining experience at different yards before taking her
BHSAI at the age of 17.5 at Snainton Riding Centre. She then attended
Warwickshire College to study for a Diploma in Horse Management.
Since
leaving school she has always produced her own horses and has competed at most
disciplines including Riding Club Nationals in show jumping, eventing and cross
country. This also included twice being placed in the RC Top Score Final at
Olympia International Horse Show on a horse that she nursed back from a near
fatal injury.
She has now taken a back seat from competing to be
responsible for the production, rehabiltiation and recovery of horse's in her
care whilst following her children's competition success.
Jo has always
had a keen interest in updating her knowledge in the rapidly changing
equestrian world she has recently gained Recommended Associate Status from
