Harrogate district woman selected for England dressage team A Harrogate district woman will represent England and the North & East Region in a national dressage competition next month. Jo Loftus from Grewelthorpe has been selected ahead of the Senior Home Nations Dressage Competition. Jo is also known as 'The Business Lady' as she helps Yorkshire's entrepreneurs develop and grow their businesses. She is also the former Managing Director of Weeton's in Harrogate. She said:

"Representing England and the North & East Region is a huge personal achievement as an amateur at 45! "What's remarkable is the wealth of lessons that can be taken from dressage, the equivalent of horse ballet and applied to business, I love using these lessons to enable my clients to build strong business foundations to springboard their business growth."
The dressage championships take place 22-24th September at Kelsall Hill Equestrian Centre, Cheshire. The team will be competing against the other UK nations: Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Read more local stories from Your Harrogate here.
