10 years! What an achievement!!
I can’t believe that I have been photographing these events for the last 8 years now! It is always such a fantastic experience where networkers build real and long lasting connections, with fabulous guest speakers and of course most importantly with the herd!
If you haven’t experienced it yet, I can only recommend it!
This time the guest speaker was Alex Durham who runs a successful videography business in Canterbury. We were all curious about her video equipment and were surprised to hear that she named them.
We were introduced to “Gary” the camera and “Drew” the hand-held mount. As you can see, we were also invited to hold her kit. Wow, that was amazing!
Becci Godfrey of HorseSense UK says:
Networking is an essential part of every business and ours has been no exception! When we started running our taster sessions in 2012, we noticed the participants would swap business cards after and go on to purchase one another’s services.
In 2013 we ran a networking morning for a local networking group because I was struggling to explain the benefits of horses to a room full of people without them experiencing it first-hand.
In 2014 we ran 6 Networking Masterclasses with the horses and that’s when Barbara came onboard. Suggested that we get to know each other by a mutual acquaintance that we’d both met networking, Barbara started to capture the magical horse-human interactions through her wonderful pictures.
We changed to a pure networking format in 2015 allowing people to take from the horses what they needed and have run them that way ever since.
It felt fitting this year to acknowledge just how long our networking sessions have been running. Whilst the horses have changed in that time, our commitment to supporting the local community through honest and authentic connection has not.
It’s also no mean feat that Barbara is still our excellent photographer, with all that life has thrown us over the last 8 years – a partnership we are truly grateful for.
So cheers to running 10 years of taster and networking sessions with horses and a huge thank you to those that have been on this journey with us!
As we step into the next 10 years (we hope) we will continue to take with us what works and let go of what does not in service of our customers. Look out for an exciting new name and ethos to support it and be sure to spread the word about our events with others!
The next HorseSense Networking opportunity is on Friday 21st October 2022, with guest speaker and Spiritual Wayfinder Jan Brown.

We look forward to welcoming you and sharing the wisdom of the horses.
