Horse to exercise wanted

Natasha from Woolston

I am looking for a horse to ride regularly in the Woolston/Heathcote area/east of Christchurch ideally but am open to other areas if it is the right fit.
I have a lesson once a week and I am looking to ride more regularly and an hour every weekend just doesn't seem enough! I ideally would like to just have some fun but obviously would also be benefiting you by helping exercise your horse. Would like to do a bit of jumping, flat work, hacking etc and I love just being around horses - grooming etc. I had my own horse and rode overseas from a young age and have just got back into it over the last year after about 8 years off. I would say I am at an intermediate level and I am trying to brush up on my skills. I haven’t competed in NZ but have done level 1 dressage tests and have jumped up to 70cm since starting back since last year. I am 26 and work full time during the weekdays but am available to ride after work if it is close enough and also in the weekends. If you want to discuss further, please message me or give me a text 0272030022

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
