PROPERTY ACQUISITION &

RELOCATION

Tessa Lamb Ltd is an independent Property Search, Relocation and Acquisition service.

BERKSHIRE HAMPSHIRE OXFORDSHIRE

Clare Balding is just as you would expect her to be: warm, articulate, intelligent, inspiring. Most reassuring, though, is how down to earth the broadcaster and best-selling author remains despite the accolades that

have been heaped upon her: OBE, BAFTA Special Award, Royal Television Society’s Presenter of the Year Award, Racing Journalist of the Year, to name but a few. “I don’t need freshly born kittens and lilies. I don’t even need a dressing room. I go and change in the loo if needs be.”

It is this lack of entitlement, along with her unerring professionalism, that has won over the hearts of pretty much the entire nation and made her the go-to presenter for so many of the sporting calendar’s biggest events.

When we meet she has just finished fronting Crufts, is in the middle of filming a Channel 4 documentary, When Football Banned Women, which tells the story of the globally feted Dick Kerr ladies and explains how the 50-year ban (1921-1971) came about. Then she’s onto the Boat Race, the America’s Cup (“something totally new for me to learn”), Wimbledon, swiftly followed by the European Women’s Football Championships in Holland, which she is also presenting for the first time. In amongst all this, she has her ongoing Radio 4 series, Ramblings, and is also in the throes of writing her second novel for children, a sequel to her hugely popular witty debut, The Racehorse Who Wouldn’t Gallop. Due out in October, it has, she tips us off, a “certain Shergar theme to it”.

It’s exhausting just thinking about her schedule. And that’s not all of her commitments by any means, so just imagine when it’s an Olympic year. How on earth does she do it?

“There’s a lot of other stuff that I don’t do. My sister-in-law will rustle up dinner for 20 people without blinking – that would give me a heart attack. I don’t have kids. Alice [Arnold, her wife] plans our holidays. I’m pretty focused on what I do.” Focused, or a workaholic, perhaps? “Yes, it is a danger, ” she admits. “But I recognise it and pull back from it.”

The buzz of live coverage is hard to pass up, she admits: “I do love the energy and performance of live TV and radio, bringing a sporting event to life… trying to make people care about a race they’ve never watched before and they don’t know who half the swimmers, cyclists or whoever are.”

As the daughter of former racehorse trainer Ian Balding, sport was in her blood. “The whole family was into it and it was on TV all the time.” She did endless competitive riding in the holidays and played a lot of lacrosse at Downe House, where she was head girl. Sport is, she insists, hugely important to schoolchildren’s confidence.

“When you’re really struggling and feeling that you’re failing at something, it’s really good for showing you how to pick yourself up – not just how to succeed, but how to work in a team, how to react when someone else wins, how to get fit, to recover.”

It is also, she says, a valuable reminder that life’s “not all about being size zero and stick thin”. It’s a theme she deals with in The Racehorse Who Wouldn’t Gallop, which tells the heartwarming story of a horse-mad 10-year-old girl, Charlie Bass, who has big thighs and even bigger dreams. ››

Testimonials“The offer Wyse Cashmere ran on School Notices for six weeks exceeded our expectations far more than anticipated and I am delighted to say that our stocks were depleted within a matter of days due to the high demand from the School Notices members. From the outstanding success of this campaign, Wyse will without doubt use this avenue again to drive awareness of our

brand going forward.” Marielle CEO Wyse Cashmere

“I was battling with endless requests from various companies wanting to sell their goods and services and also from parents. The great thing about School Notices is that I can now divert all that info, all those requests to the SN team. Headmasters will realise it’s a win situation. It clears their desks, it saves them time, it brings in revenue, so you have a happy

headmaster and a very happy bursar.” Mark Johnson, Headmaster
