We have started up the Shetland Foal Milk Service. Our aim is to supply any equine breeder in the Northern Isles with an emergency supply of mare’s milk replacer and colostrum any time – 24 hours a day. We are running this under the auspices of Joanna Vardon's National Foaling Bank.

Charlot moved south when I had my back surgery. He is doing very well. His blog is still updated occasionally. He is loved and his new owner is keeping him.
 

TV & Film

In 2009 we worked for NRK1, the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation, on the Shetland episodes of Himmelblå. We were asked to train two of the main actors to ride and to provide both Icelandic horses and Shetland ponies for the set. You can read about our experiences here.

Last year saw us working with BBC Scotland & Timeline Films on a documentary about "journeys through Scotland to explore the landscape and history that has inspired travellers and tourists for over 200 years.".

Publications - "Shetland Ponies are...." - a postcard booklet, and a set of 4 coasters (there is also a Shetland wild flower postcard booklet and coasters too). Published by The Shetland Times Bookshop. I suggest you email them for more details.
