 Maddie has been a committee member since 1992,  becoming Treasurer the following year and adding the posts of secretary, and web supremo at various points since then. She used to be something of a dressage queen but these days is more likely to be found just cuddling Bob the cob; in the circumstances, he is shown solo!
