Tessa Thorne is a well loved rider/judge and dressage trainer from Gloucestershire. She completed a horse bred for racing at international GP and has trained many of our well know riders today both in dressage and eventing. She was competing herself until 2012 when she was diagnosed with primary progressive MS. She sold her horse which them went on to represent GB in Young Riders at the Europeans. Tessa is unable to have any further treatment in the UK and will have to travel abroad for treatment that has the possibility of stopping reversing the damage that has been done by her MS.
