Pat Burgess MBE Obituary

I hope you will indulge me as I give a short eulogy to another great lady who, whilst not BHS qualified, coached and influenced so many of us.
Here I quote “Pat was a seriously – fantastic show jumping coach, working with the British Eventing Teams and the likes of Lucinda Green”.
Pat also, worked tirelessly for the RDA as co-founder of Wilton’s Riding for the Disabled.

I remember taking jumping lessons with Pat and being given a piece of paper, which I found in the last Lockdown, on it was written the following as presented:
R…………Rhythm
I…………..Impulsion
B………….Balance
S………….Suppleness
With love from Pat.
That was my ‘Scale of Training’ for many years.
