Thank you to all who came along the Helm on Sunday. Cake and tea and a blustery afternoon were enjoyed by all and by the more regular grazers who definitely enjoyed their day in the limelight! We thought you might like to see a few pictures from the day. And don't forget, we're running events like this all summer. You can view them on our events page or download our new Events Brochure which you can print out and keep handy.

A bit of information about the pony from her owner, Nicola Evans:

The pony is Midtown Fern. She is 4 years old and has lived on the Helm since I bought her when she was weaned at 5 months old. She is a lovely girl who loves attention and has recently started being ridden which she is really enjoying as she was getting bored. She is actually off to her new home this weekend – going to live with a vet I was at university with and her Exmoor ponies in North Wales.
