Polite request: the horses and team at Tower are loving being able to still welcome people on site but we wish to keep everyone as safe as possible. Please can the number of individuals coming to Tower Farm be limited to client riding plus one other parent/guardian. (If possible wait in your car whilst session taking place.) Please can you ensure you have used bathroom facilities before coming on site. The toilets are open but only to be used as last resort. Please bring your own small hand sanitizer as this limits the amount of touch points. Only 1 person per client riding to enter gallery, only sit with members of the same household and always wear a face covering. (We appreciate sometimes siblings need to come along but please just wait in car if possible.) We are encouraging all clients to purchase their own equipment, if you do need to borrow, please return to office not hooks so they can be sanitised. |
Many thanks to everyone that has been unbelievably supportive at this very strange time.
TF hoodies: jackets, shirts and many more available.
