The three-strong team members all have excellent credentials. They are; Ellie Wass, Stewart Wass and Kate Wass.

Ellie Wass

"I started riding at the age of 12 when my family moved to the Peak District. We had a small-holding and I helped with the running of the stables. I competed in local shows and was also a member of Tameside pony club. I graduated in Equine Business Management. As part of the course, I spent a year in Australia working on racing and dressage yards. When I finished the course I worked on competition yards and had the opportunity to compete young horses. On one of the yards I also trained with Yoge Briesner. After all this experience, I have taken the good points, learned from the bad points and created a yard that is friendly, but is run to a very high standard."

Stewart Wass

"I took early retirement from the Met Office to face a new challenge. For part of my career I was attached to the Agricultural Development & Advisory Service and learned the theory of grassland management. I put this into practice when I built up a livery yard in the Peak District. At the same time I was District Commissioner for the local Pony Club. I'm now responsible for the business management and maintenance at UPEC. Being a direct descendant of the Vikings I’m a natural seafarer and horseman!"

Stewart

Kate Wass

"I trained as a legal secretary and receptionist hence the excellent telephone manner! I was also secretary to Tameside & District Pony Club while living in the Peak District. I now look after the UPEC accounts and administration."
