Tucked away down a side road, between two south London housing estates, is an acre of calm. Against a backdrop of tower blocks and graffiti, this is where teenager Khadijah Mellah learned to ride horses. In August, the year-old's smile beamed out from national news bulletins as she became the first British Muslim woman to ride in a horse race, the first jockey to compete wearing a hijab.

Developing life skills and aspirations
Welcome to Ebony Horse Club, Brixton. We are a community riding centre in Brixton. We teach riding and horse care, take groups to outdoor events and on trips away. With us, children learn new skills, develop aspirations and take on new responsibilities. They feel part of something important, building confidence and improving wellbeing. Through our youth services work we also mentor children, giving support to those that need it most. We are based in Coldharbour Ward, Brixton South London — one of the most disadvantaged inner city neighbourhoods in the country. Needless to say, it is a difficult place to grow up, with a history of under-achievement in schools, high rates of teenage pregnancy, gang violence and drug-related crime. Negative stereotypes and difficulty getting work often result in low aspirations and low self worth. Many feel the world is not their own and their opportunities in life are limited.

Horse riding has given Shanice both an outlet and a direction in life. Having garnered a huge collection of rosettes over the past six years — proudly framed on the sitting-room wall — she is on track, for which her mother, Karen, is profoundly grateful. So is Junior. Those stables, the first to be built in inner London for decades, will be in Wyck Gardens, a two-acre strip of unloved land sandwiched between tower blocks and a railway line just off Coldharbour Lane in Brixton. Coldharbour ward is one of the poorest in Lambeth, the fifth most deprived borough in the country. Here, children can grow up never seeing the countryside, let alone having the opportunity to race across open spaces on horseback.

If you marry her, you're marrying into a cult, a mild cult as far as cults go, but a cult nonetheless. Family or girlfrient or the pet.
