Para Show Jumper Evie Toombes, has just finished mentoring two students from Robert Smyth Academy as part of the programme organised by The Mintridge Foundation and sponsored by Bowbridge Homes.

Evie helped both of her mentees to concentrate on the positives and to overcome challenges with their uncertainty at school or in their exams. The Para Rider worked with her mentees to focus on their mental well-being and provided tools for how to manage their stress levels and achieve goals in their future.
