The principal consultant, Rebecca Wilson is probably the only consultant in England and Wales with a formal understanding of both horse business management and of the planning system.  This formal training coupled with years of specialist experience puts her in an unusually commanding position to give her clients the very best quality advice, and can often mean the difference between success and failure in gaining planning permission.  She holds an MSc in Rural Estate Management and a Post Graduate Diploma in Equine Business Management. Equine Consultancy Group was established in 2003 and since then many tricky applications have been successful and difficult appeals won.
