Meet The Pony Parties In Miniature Team
A little about us
'Pony Parties In Miniature' consists of Mick, Maxine and Claudia Foulkes (and 8 beautiful Miniature Horses).
We are trained first aiders, fully insured and CRB checked for your peace of mind.
Maxine has been a Primary School teacher since 1979 so with 33 years teaching experience organising and keeping children entertained comes as second nature. She also holds an art degree and this is fully put to use when designing your cards, invitations and the interior of the Party Barn which is colour themed throughout. She has been involved with horses and ponies from a very early age and has 40 years of horse owning experience. She has competed very successfully at National level in both ridden and in-hand classes including winning at the largest horse show in the world- 'The Horse of the Year Show'. She produces all the show horses here and has just won two of the three categories in the HOYS 'TAGG' consistence awards.
Mick has recently completed 37 years of managerial service with a large brewing company. He is extremely talented when completing DIY tasks. He also is well at home with large groups of children and he has run a large Cub Scout Group. He is very patient with children particularly the youngest ones. He has restored a 1952 vintage Ferguson TE20 tractor which is always a hit with the children. He is a great animal lover and one of the loves of his life are his 'three little girls' LULU, CHLOE and BELLA. Not his daughters- his three beloved cats.
Claudia has just completed her Illustration and Photography degree at Coventry University. She runs her own photography business and works as a care assistant. She shows our Miniature Horses extremely sucessfully and has been champion at The Horse of the Year Show (NEC) with our Jack and won at this years Royal International Horse Show (HICKSTEAD) with Rusty. She has also appeared on both BBC and ITV television and appeared in books and magazines. Caudia is always very keen to share her knowledge with children and adults alike in Own a Pony experiences, showing packages and adult experiences.
The horses - we have seven American Miniature Horses and one British Miniature horse here. Some were imported from the USA, some were born in this country and some were bred by ourselves.
Jack, Rio, Rusty (stallion),Fairy and Alice are shown and Ella, Macey, Lily and Alice are used for Pony Parties. The show horses are also used for showing and adult experiences and displays etc. To know more about them visit their individual pages.
