From a note on a ‘To Do list’ to a force like no other


“Meet Jess” aka @life_on_the_buckle and find out what makes her tick, plus learn why Country & Stable of Olney (C&S) have a Brand Ambassador and why they chose Jess Maye.


ess Maye jumped on board with C&S back in January 2020 and has been a pleasure to work with since. Her witty, fun and addictive personality had C&S hooked from the start and her character, teamed up with her love for horses and the C&S brand, has been a force like no other.


So why did C&S take on a Brand Ambassador? C&S knew that it was something they wanted to do, but it was key they found the right person. So for a while it had been a note on a ‘To Do list’ rather than an urgent task to fulfil. Their aim was to reach out to the country & equestrian community through a “real person”; someone who was already submerged in the lifestyle and could provide honest and knowledgeable experiences of both C&S and the products they sell.


Jess, hit us up with three words that you would use to describe yourself?


Oh, this is tricky! I’m a huge advocate of being kind, so I definitely hope I’m this! I would like to think I’m funny, well I make myself laugh on daily basis. I’m very tenacious, I tend to set myself goals and like a dog with a bone, won’t let it go until it’s achieved.


Ooooo, so I’ve


owned 5 horses in my 20 years of riding...


How old were you when you first became interested in horses and how did it come about?


I first sat in a saddle when I was much smaller, my mum would take my sister and I to ride a cracking pony called Red (I wouldn’t really count it as riding, more like bobbing about in the saddle) I must have been about 6 years old. As I grew slightly older, around the age of 10, I would spend the summer holidays in Ireland with my grandma. My grandma signed us up for various activities with one of those being horse riding. Both my sister and I loved it, learning to ride in Ireland was incredible, we had no fear and learnt the traditional way, no reins or stirrups with our eyes closed! We really lived life on the end of the buckle. When we returned home, my mum saw the pure enjoyment it brought us both, so ‘hey presto’ we got our first ponies and let’s just say the rest is history!


How many horses have you owned and dare we ask, any favourites?


Jess initially hit C&S’ radar after she entered one of their competitions and she would often tag C&S when reviewing products she had purchased from them. Her vivacious online presence and entertaining posts quickly caught their eye and they knew then that the note on their ‘To Do list’ was now a natural plan in action.


Enough from us, we know you want to hear from Jess herself, so here is a fun and informative insight in to Jess via a great Q&A session C&S had with her during lockdown.


8 September/October 2020


Ooooo, so I’ve owned 5 horses in my 20 years of riding and loaned many more. Sid, my current boy is my horse of a lifetime, I’ve achieved my wildest dreams on him and he owes me nothing. Thunder is a close second, my mum now owns him. I call him my slipper, typical sports cob, full of personality


but safe as they come. When I’ve had a tricky ride and need to reset the clock, going for a hack on Thunder and putting the world to rights is another favourite thing of mine to do.
