Rider Injuries Not related To Fall’s
It is essential when meeting any rider coming to me for the first time be it as a group or one to one
that I carry out a risk assessment
...
People often say to be
more aware of risk of injury to children but it is no difference really to when we are getting older and
our bodies have suffered wear and tear and indeed injuries not related to horse riding

I will use an example here to show how I would manage it
...
The injury is to her left knee
...
– includes all horse
activities
Collecting a horse from or returning it to a field ……………
...
heavy or difficult to carry or trip over trailing reins
Tacking up ……………………………… reaching up
...
Having an eye to what mood she is in as to whether we can lesson jumping or a blast on the beach
…………
...
Now regarding Gail I have to set realistic goals bearing in mind the knee injury compensation must
be made but not too much
...
As with any rider before I let them onto a horse I check that they have good stirrups and that the
leathers are at the right length for them (absolutely essential for Gail)
...
Back protectors and / or air
vests (with in date and tested canisters) for lessons and hi viz gear for hacking
...
What does she want to achieve she wants to jump but we do discuss that show jumping or cross
country would simply be pushing the pre existing knee injury too far !
So going back to the risk assessment

I can confirm Gail is
currently pain free
and receiving no
treatment

Finally after the lesson we would ensure that getting off the horse is done safely and that she and
horse cool down properly
