WHERE IT ALL BEGAN


Youthful devotion, combined with determination and will has assisted Alena in growing a prosperous young career in equestrianism with sponsorships and multitude of awards. Her continuing passion for the sport has allowed her to achieve several successes, and her continuous strive for perfection is sure to only push her further.

ACHIEVEMENTS


Alena started equestrianism at the age of 4 years old after taking her pony to the local gymkhana and trying her hand at Novice Lead Rein Jumping. Much to her delight, she came home with two shiny trophies after winning both classes; this is where the love affair began. 

ROYAL INTERNATIONAL HORSE SHOW


Through tonnes of hard work and determination, Alena gained her first ticket to the prestigious Royal International Horse Show Hickstead and The Horse of the Year Show Birmingham NEC at just 8 years old.


“ To compete in the world famous International Arena at Hickstead was a dream come true as it would be for any child at that age, the team at Hickstead make the ground perfect and it gives you such a feeling in the huge arena and it’s wonderful that it’s in the UK. ”

BRITISH CHILDREN ON HORSES CHAMPIONSHIP


Alena made the transition to horses at the age of 11 and within three months became the British Children on Horses Championship winner. 

 

Alena gained valuable experience from Helena Stormanns, who granted her the opportunity to support her in the USA. Under the wing of Helena, Alena achieved several wins and became Reserve Champion in America. 


Gaining valuable knowledge and training from Olympian Michael Whitaker, Alena gained the British Children on Horses championship win for the second consecutive year at the age of 12, represented Great Britain at various International Nations Cups, winning 1* & 2* Grand Prixs across Europe and most recently the Arena UK Under 25’s Championship. 

CHARITY WORK


Alongside achieving her GCSEs a year early, Alena has been busy raising thousands of pounds for a number of charities in need, including Children's Alderhey Hospital Liverpool, Medical Detection Dogs and the late Kate Douglas. 


“ The knowledge that I'm helping others is hugely empowering and, in turn, makes me feel much happier and fulfilled. For me, it’s a great way to give back to my community and make a positive difference in someone’s life. ”

On behalf of all our young patients, their families and staff here at Alder Hey, I would like to thank Alena for the fabulous donation of £2,150, raised during Christmas 2019. We really appreciate the help and support We like to think we’re more than a hospital and we’re proud of providing a positive, supportive environment for families during difficult times. Donations help fund life-saving medical equipment, vital research and much more, including arts materials, toys and amazing family facilities. Alena's support is a truly remarkable thing and really will make a lasting difference to help make Alder Hey in the Park a truly world-leading place for our young patients and their families.
