Betsy Irwin is the Licence Holder and Chief Instructor at Laris Farm. She grew up riding on her family farm and with the pony club, eventing up to the Novice level and Show Jumping as part of her pony club national team. Betsy dreamed of becoming a Showjumper and competing in the Hickstead Derby, but at age 16, she was offered a scholarship at an international dressage yard and training centre, which changed her path. During her scholarship, Betsy achieved her BHSAI at the young age of 19, and over the years, she has realized that her true passion lies in helping others achieve their goals rather than setting goals of her own.
Laila turned up last summer, and she just won’t leave… jokes aside Laila has found her future at Laris Farm. School isn’t for everyone, but being a good groom is probably harder and Laila is an outstanding groom… when she’s not out, standing on the yard talking!
