Harry Meade is at the top of his game - but how does he pick himself up when things don't go as planned and just what is there left to achieve for this world class eventing rider...
Harry, Meade, this is your Rural Life!
Welcome to Series 1, Episode 13 of The Farmette Podcast.
Today we are joined by champion eventing rider, Harry Meade - and Tamara's friend.
He is one of Britain’s most accomplished and respected event riders and a friend of Tamara's. In 2025, he achieved an unprecedented six clear, inside-the-time rounds at Burghley, Kentucky and Badminton consecutively and was crowned FEI World Number One following the string of top-level results of which he still holds today.
He is based at Church Farm in South Gloucestershire, where he grew up and has competed at 5* level, (which is the pinocle of the sport) for over twenty years.
He is renowned for his quiet, sympathetic riding style with an exceptional ability to produce horses from young prospects through to the highest level of the sport, continuously. He became a silver medallist for Great Britain at the 2014 World Championships, and has completed Badminton and Burghley thirty-two times, remaining the youngest rider to ever receive the Armada Dish for five Badminton completions.
Alongside his competitive career, he is a BBC eventing commentator, writer for leading equestrian publications, and a long-standing member of the World Class Squad. Despite the prestige of being world number 1, His ultimate ambition is to win Badminton, Burghley and Olympic gold.
We hope you enjoy this chat about Harry’s life…
