Mark Aikens DipWCF BSc(Hons)

In this week's episode, Mark Aikens shares a career shaped by education, travel, and resilience. From a non-horsey upbringing and early days in Irish racing yards to earning his farriery qualifications and later a BSc in Farriery Science, Mark reflects on how continued learning has influenced every stage of his work.
He also discusses shoeing endurance horses, international teaching in places like India and Romania, and how a serious shoeing accident led him to develop a “plan B” through tool rebuilding.
I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
