The Society is pleased to introduce Eleri Roberts, who will take up the position of Young Ambassador Elect at the 2027 AGM. Eleri will work alongside Imogen Hargraves as she takes over as Young Ambassador.
Eleri will start working alongside Scott and Imogen to assist with a smooth transfer when the time comes.
The Society Office and Trustees look forward to working with Eleri.

Here's a little bit below from Eleri herself, and I’m sure many of you who don’t already know her will be able to meet her over the coming months.

I am very honoured and pleased to have been chosen as the Young Ambassador of the WPCS for 2028/29. I am the fourth generation of breeding Welsh Ponies & Cobs at the Heolas Stud. I have been brought up with Welsh Ponies & Cobs all my life, in North Wales and now in South Wales at the foot of the Bannau Brycheiniog. My day to day job is working for the Society’s Official Auctioneers, McCartneys in Brecon, where I am heavily involved in the equine department. During my term, I hope to reach out to as many young people within the Society here in the UK and further afield.

Yr wyf yn ddiolchgar iawn am y cyfle a’r anrhydedd o gael fy newis fel Llysgennad Ifanc Cymdeithas Y Merlod A’r Cobiau Cymreig. Edrychaf ymlaen yn fawr iawn i gydweithio gyda pobl ifanc y Gymdeithas dros y blynyddoedd nesa’.
