Sports therapy for people and horses.
Lambourn
RG17 8NG
Frankie Naylor specialises in helping equestrian athletes to manage chronic and acute sports injuries. She uses a combination of sports massage, ultrasound and taping to improve healing. Frankie uses corrective exercises to both rehabilitate and prevent injuries. The combination of improving muscular strength and flexibility creates a platform from which fitness can be improved for optimal sports performance in this weight controlled discipline.
With an honours degree in Sports Science and a Diploma in Equine Sports Massage Frankie decided to focus her sports therapy business in the equestrian sector. Frankie made the move to Lambourn 16 years ago specifically to work within the racing industry. Since then she has helped rehabilitate and improve the fitness of many clients involved in racing, eventing and other equestrian disciplines. Frankie also regularly treats horses to aid performance, prevent and rehabilitate injury.
In 2009 Frankie was chosen to set up and run the rehabilitation centre in Oaksey House for The Injured Jockeys Fund. During this four-year period Frankie managed a team of therapists and worked with members of the racing community to rehabilitate and improve fitness for riders. She worked on projects to help improve rider safety especially for those coming back to race riding after prolonged injury. She also played a key part in educating jockeys with regard to nutrition, fitness and injury management. Frankie ran seminars for the jockey coaches educating on specific coaching techniques and methods of assessing fitness for riding.
Having coached a variety of sports over the years Frankie’s main focus is trampolining. As a qualified coach for 23 years she has found that understanding the biomechanics of trampolining is a fantastic grounding for assessing and coaching the equestrian athlete to improve performance.
With over 600 clients Frankie now works from both her purpose built studio in Lambourn and within a variety of racing and other equestrian yards. Her main areas of work include sports massage and exercise rehabilitation for riders and equine sports massage.
Frankie has recently conducted three additional qualifications with The American College of Sports Medicine to further her knowledge in the areas of corrective exercise, elite performance and children in sport.
As a work rider Frankie has ridden out for trainers both in the UK and Ireland over the years. Most recently Frankie has been to check out the new gallop for recently retired jockey Noel Fehily and his wife Natasha. It is reported that all horses were feeling well on the new surface!

The Lambourn Valley Horticultural Society started in 1988. In the May edition of Village Views a letter from Bridget Barman of East Garston asked if there was anyone who would be interested in starting a Gardeners' Club/Horticultural Society. In the June edition of that year the inaugural meeting was announced, to be held on Thursday 16th June in Lambourn Memorial Hall which was attended by 33 enthusiasts. It was decided to have monthly meetings with guest speakers and a few outings to gardens of interest during the summer months. By the middle of September we had enjoyed an outing to the RHS garden at Wisley and had our first meeting, an illustrated talk given by Wendy Burdett on Garden Design.
Many years later we are still a thriving society with a number of current members who attended that first inaugural meeting.
The present day Society still runs on the same lines. We meet on the second Thursday of each month from September to May in Lambourn Memorial Hall at 7.00pm when we have speakers covering a wide variety of gardening topics. From May to September we enjoy outings to a variety of gardens both private and ones open to the public, both large and small. These visits are always very popular and you have to book early to get a place on the coach. Once a year we have a quiz against Ramsbury Horticultural Society with questions posed by an outside quizmaster, each society taking it in turns to host the evening.
Our annual subscription is £8. As a member you can attend meetings and outings. We also have plant sales at the October, April and May meetings and make and sell Christmas wreaths at Lambourn Church Christmas Fair.
If you would like to join the society just come along to one of our meetings, or if you would like to try us out first you will be welcome as a visitor for a small fee. Look out for posters in Lambourn and details in Village Views. Our current Chairman Anne Saunders. We are a very friendly sociable society providing a good opportunity to make new friends.

Jamie has trained over 240 winners and is lucky enough to have already trained a Cheltenham Festival winner from Folly House in Lambourn.
Jamie nurtured a passion for racing from an early age, through Pony Club, hunting, and then riding in Point-to-Points. Whilst at school, he rode out for Nigel Twiston-Davies, and during his gap year he worked as an Assistant Trainer for a flat yard in New Zealand. He continued to work ride for several trainers while at Newcastle University.
During his short career in the army, he was in demand from trainers seeking an advantage in the annual military races each spring at Sandown. He won both the Grand Military Gold Cup and the Royal Artillery Gold Cup four times. A proud moment in the saddle came when he carried the Queen’s colours to victory on First Love in a race at Sandown in 2006 run in memory of her mother. Jamie progressed to achieve around sixty pointing wins and a further forty winners under rules as a much in demand amateur jockey.
After a season as pupil assistant for champion trainer Paul Nicholls, Jamie then worked for three seasons as assistant trainer and amateur jockey for Nicky Henderson before branching out on his own in 2008.
After a couple of seasons training a small number of horses from a rented yard in a remote Wiltshire village, Jamie moved to Folly House in Lambourn in 2011. It proved to be an inspired move as Knighton Combe (the first runner from his new quarters) landed the Summer National, and Ixora became his first Cheltenham winner that autumn. In 2014 Jamie trained his first Cheltenham Festival winner when Present View won the Novice Handicap chase on the Tuesday for Sir Chips Keswick.

In the spring of 2003 the Parish Council asked the plotholders on the council's allotments to administer the plots themselves. The administration of the plots was proving too time consuming for the council staff.
On the 1st April 2003 the Lambourn Allotment Society was set up and took over administration of the allotment site from that date. The Society is run by a committee of 5 people. The Society elects annually a chairman, treasurer, secretary and a further committee member; a councillor is appointed to the committee by the Parish Council. The committee is charged with administering the plots to ensure that as many as possible are used and is able to use the rents received to pay for water, insurance and maintenance costs such as rabbit control and fence repairs. Any surplus is used for improvements such as additional rabbit fencing and hard surfacing for vehicular access.
Long term plans (5-10 years) are limited as the security of tenure is only on an annual basis. However the Society's general aims are:
To continue to encourage maximum occupancy of the plots
To make improvements to the site as funds permit
To encourage an improving standard of husbandry and tidiness of the plots
There is currently a waiting list for plots but interested parties should firstly make themselves known to the Society's Waiting List Secretary, lambourn.allotments@gmail.com

Lambourn Chimers was started following a talk about the history of handbell ringing at the local WI. Some of the attendees then went to a workshop run by the speaker. As a result of this workshop, four of us started to play regularly, with borrowed handbells, in late 2002.
We have obtained lottery funding to purchase bells and bought other equipment from local charitable donations and our own fundraising efforts. The group currently has nine ringers, with two and a half octaves of handbells and two octaves of chimes.
We are members of the Handbell Ringers of Great Britain (HRGB) Some of us have attended Regional and National rallies, picking up hints, tips and music along the way.
When possible, we play at local events from a wide range of music in different styles. The demand is highest in the weeks before Christmas. We have performed in Churches, Nursing Homes and Day Centres, Hospitals and for WI branches.
We have even managed to find a way to play during lockdown using Zoom and a website call Ringing Room.

Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) is a national organisation made up of Member Groups dedicated to improving the lives of people with disabilities, through riding and/or carriage driving. It's all about giving children and adults confidence and independence to benefit their health and well being and to achieve their goals, whilst having fun.
Horse riding offers an opportunity for enjoyment, challenge, friendship, laughter, achievement, independence and confidence.
The local representative of the RDA is the Lambourn Group which is part of the Southern Region. Each group of the RDA is self supporting, so fund raising is an essential part of ensuring we can continue to provide a centre for riding locally.

GP surgery PPGs (Patient Participation Groups) were set up to assist communication between the patients and surgery. The Lambourn Surgery PPG does this in several ways such as in the organisation of regular health promotion events, providing information on broader local and national issues to help develop future services and helping to improve the quality of service for the benefit of both the registered patients and the doctors and staff. It also acts as a critical friend of the Surgery.
Recently it has assisted the running of the flu clinics at the Lambourn Sports Club and Great Shefford and is currently assisting the running of the Newbury Racecourse vaccination centre through managing the local volunteers.
The Lambourn Surgery has both a virtual group where the communication is all electronic and a committee group which meets in person (or by Zoom these days!) four times a year to discuss the latest issues. The minutes of these minutes will be published on the lambourn.org and the Lambourn surgery websites.
The committee currently has 15 members which includes representatives of Lambourn Parish Council, the Benefice of the Lambourn Valley and the Lambourn Pharmacy. There is a management team and all meetings are chaired by Alan Breadmore. To contact the Lambourn Surgery PPG please email ppgchairpersonlambourn@gmail.com.

Lambourn WI was suspended when there were insufficient members prepared to remain on the committee at the Annual Meeting on 14th March 2023.
It was a sad day for those of us who have been WI members for a long time. We were pleased that we had managed to celebrate our 2021 centenary belatedly by planting a tree in the Churchyard, having a little party (necessary because of partial lockdown) and ending with the fun belly dancing event in February.

Fridays 4 -5pm 4 – 8 years
Fridays 5 – 6pm 8 – 14 years
Above weekly classes are paid for monthly by standing order (no contract).
Free taster sessions are available for all age groups.
We offer group and private classes for children from the age of 4. We run a junior syllabus tailored specifically for children. There are ‘kids’ classes for children aged 4-7 and the ‘Cadets’ classes for children aged 8-15. The classes are split into beginners and advanced. There are no more than 12 children in a class.
There are a whole range of martial arts disciplines out there, but generally speaking they all encourage those things we often struggle to generate in children: physical health and agility, discipline and concentration.
With the concept of ‘goal attainment’ via the belt system at the heart of karate, the sport provides a useful way for children to focus on moving ‘up the ranks’ and the sense of satisfaction and self-fulfillment this brings, building a child’s self-esteem and confidence along the way and giving them experience in exam situations through their gradings.
Karate isn’t just about physical prowess – the sport is also about training the mind and spirit so children learn skills they can take into other areas of their life too; better concentration and reasoning skills, vital for academic success. Karate imparts invaluable physical skills, such as self-defense, which may help a child protect itself if they find themselves in a risky situation.

St Gabriel's in Newbury offers an innovative and inspiring education to children from the age of 6 months to 18 years. A minibus transport service offers pick up points in Lambourn, Great Shefford and surrounding areas .
We are proud that a St Gabriel’s education allows our pupils, be they the children in the nursery and Junior School or in the Senior School and Sixth Form, to move on to the next stage of their education with a lifelong intellectual curiosity, the ability to question and challenge and a confidence and belief in their ability.
We provide an environment that allows children to develop physically, academically and creatively.
While justifiably proud of our pupils’ academic results, we see education as being so much more than numbers and grades; we believe strongly in an all-round education and are eager for our pupils to enjoy their educational journey, rather than having their heads down as the world passes them by. That is not to say that our pupils do not achieve exceptional academic results – a glance at the recent league tables and inspection report will show you just how well they do – it is just that we aim to create the right balance in education, a place where achievement takes place, but without unnecessary and damaging pressure. Our pastoral care is second to none in supporting the transition through the different stages of childhood and school.
Please contact our registrar by telephone, email or our website to arrange a visit.

Refurbished for the benefit & use of the whole community
The Walwyn Hall (previously The Lambourn Catholic Hall) Baydon Road, has played its part in the community since it was built in the 1960's. Fondly known as "The Catholic Club", it was a vibrant part of the community with regular dances and functions. Following a period of time where the hall was let fall into disrepair, the community decided to bring back The Catholic Hall. As a result of numerous Fund Raising activities and generous donations the hall has been re-furbished.
The following improvements have been made;
A disabled toilet has been built and the existing toilets modernised.
The kitchen has been completely replaced to include new ovens, microwave, large fridge, new sinks, worktops and a commercial dishwasher.
The Bar has been replaced and includes beer fridges and a commercial glass washer
We have retained our beautiful sprung dance floor
Carpets and other flooring have been replaced throughout the hall.
New lighting has been installed including ambient LED lighting in the main hall.
Audio visual connectivity has been installed enabling use of TV/Projectors/Laptop displays
Speakers and microphones are available.
Two LED lighting rigs have been installed providing multiple uses.
Flexible box staging allows alternate configurations.
120 new padded chairs.
All areas have been decorated.
As a result we have a modern facility that we are all proud of. The hall has been refurbished for the benefit and use of the whole community. Numerous activities are capable of taking place in this facility. Examples are;
Dance functions with Band or DJ
Family Parties for Children/Adults
Dinner Dance events
Coffee Mornings
Dance Classes
Exercise Classes
Film Nights (subject to licence)
Meetings with Audio visual needs

Lambourn Wellbeing Centre is a Registered Charity (number 1197609), created in 2021 to benefit our local community.
Wellbeing is about looking after yourself every day. Whether it's a short walk or five minutes of mindfulness, even small actions can make a big difference. The Lambourn Wellbeing Centre will be a community hub to promote and encourage wellbeing, helping you find your own way to a healthy and fulfilling life.
The Centre will host activities such as:
• Movement and balance classes for all ages, from very young to elderly
• Yoga, Pilates, tai chi, and martial arts
• Physical therapy and therapeutic massage
• Meditation and quiet reflection
• Group discussions and life guidance
These kinds of activities are proven to improve fitness and health, provide social interaction, build friendships, and improve state of mind.
We have several partnerships already in place with local instructors and volunteers to host a range of classes and sessions, with more to come. We will also provide concessions and other support to make sure these activities are accessible across our whole community.
The Centre will be the home of our charity, but our work doesn't stop there. The activities we host will help us fund good works throughout the community, including helping our volunteers reach out to people who can't visit the Centre due to poor health or mobility.
We have found a neglected but promising location in Lambourn village centre. Our first job is to renovate the site into a well-equipped, comfortable, and peaceful haven, ready to welcome everyone. We are fundraising and working with other charities to help make this happen.
If you would like to pledge your time to help us, or you have any ideas and suggestions for the activities you would like to see at the Lambourn Wellbeing Centre, please let us know on our Facebook page!
You can also follow us for more information on our fundraising and for updates on our progress:
