A para-dressage rider from Kent is looking to inspire future athletes in the county.
Rachel Collins, from Ash, near Canterbury, was chosen to represent Great Britain at the Bishop Burton CPEDI para-dressage this month.
Alongside her new horse, Ronja, Rachel came second and third in events last week, and hopes to encourage more disabled riders to join the sport.
Rachel has impairments in both her legs, spine, right arm and right hand, and started competing in para dressage after being inspired by the London 2012 Paralympics.
