Policy and safeguarding notes

DBS checks are not required by younger volunteers.  
The DBS is dependent on the volunteering aspect, it is only required for those actively supporting our disabled riders, there is a four week trial period and if the volunteer wishes to become part of the team the DBS check is processed.
Support and Training

Support and Training Details

We do not need formal skills and qualifications, just a good sense of humour and willingness to work as part of a team.  
Experience around horses is an advantage but not essential as we provide full training to a recognised standard.

We are looking for people happy to share in helping on the yard, grooming, feeding and tacking up horses. 

We also need people who are willing to work with our disabled riders, being willing to lead and side walk in the lessons.

 

Skills needed

We can take anyone 14 and older and we are happy to provide the necessary training if its something new to you.
