Laura is one of the most exciting talents in the eventing world and has the potential to get to the very top of her chosen sport.

A Team Gold Medal winner for GB at the age of 15 in the Pony European Championships, Laura has since gone on to win the Individual Gold Medal at the Junior European Championships in Ireland in 2006 and then become the first rider to successfully defend that title by winning Gold again in Switzerland in 2007. She also led the GB team to Gold at the same championships.

A select number of long-term sponsorship packages are now being made available for the very first time.  They are designed to maximize the branding opportunities that will be available as Laura continues to progress through the eventing world.  The sponsorships will give companies the opportunity to work with Laura on a long-term basis and to benefit from her inevitable success.

Based in Walsall, the centre of the English Saddlery industry, Barnsby have been manufacturing top quality saddles and bridles in Britain for over 200 years. An example of Great British craftsmanship at its best, Barnsby is proud of its heritage and commitment to traditional skills yet at the same time is committed to pushing out the boundaries in saddle design.

Laura rides in the revolutionary Barnsby Xtreem event saddle.  Built upon Barnsby’s extraordinary carbon fibre tree, the Barnsby Xtreem Event is probably the lightest event saddle in the world, weighing just 3.5kg. With a laid back cantle to create the event seat, all over waxed leather for ultimate grip and mono flap for optimised leg contact, the Barnsby Xtreem Event is a revolution in the eventing world.

For dressage, Laura chose the Barnsby Lorenzo dressage saddle. This elite performance saddle offers the dressage rider a radically effective design for a competitive edge.  

James Hitchen, Managing Director of Barnsby, commented “At Barnsby we’re keen to support the best of young British talent and they really don’t come more talented than Laura! We’re delighted to provide her with support and assistance and play our part in helping her to become one of the best three-day-event riders in the world.”

Leading Safety manufacturer Charles Owen & Co are delighted to announce their sponsorship of another leader in her field, Laura Collett. This sponsorship follows on from their initial support of Laura when she was a member of the Gold Medallist Pony Team in Pratoni, Italy 2005, and also won individual Bronze.

Laura’s talent is huge and she is currently the Junior European Champion, and the youngest Rider ever in the Top 100 listing. Another endearing quality is her quiet modesty.

Charles Owen are confident in Laura’s ability to continue to progress through the ranks at the top of the tree. Her determination and poise underpin her potential as an Olympic Rider, and it is with that goal for 2012 in mind that she also receives funding on the World Class start and Potential Eventing Programme.

Charles Owen are providing Funding, Equipment, ‘Goodies’ and Product from across their range of brands. They will also be providing commercial support along with other complementary sponsors. This will enable Laura to concentrate on her career and the season ahead. Plans for which include a soon to be filmed BBC documentary.

Charles Owen pride themselves on long lasting Sponsor relationships and firmly believe that 2012 will see them in London supporting Laura, where the Company was first established in 1911. It could well see a very fitting dual celebration take place.

Laura joins an existing International Team of Event Riders that includes Polly Stockton, Kim Severson and Phillip Dutton as well as Showjumpers Michael Whitaker, Louise Saywell, Anne Kursinski and Chris Kappler.
