Duties of current occupation
Gerneral yard duties including; mucking out, grooming, turning out, etc.
Can pull and trim manes and tails, however need more practice at clipping
Also giving treatments to horses; poltersing, administering medicines (not via injection), wounds.
Equine work experience
I have been working full time at the Horse Trust an equine charity for just over two years now. Previously to this I worked at a hunt/ livery yard part time also.
Other horse experience includes 6 weeks work experience at a stud over the summer, also work experience at a riding school.
I also studied Horse management at the Berkshire College of Agriculture, which included practical and theory sessions.
Specialities
I have been working with horses now for around ten years. I can work in a team or on my own just as well. I would like to work towards my stage 3 and PTT however I'm unable to afford training costs currently which is why I haven't started my training as yet. I'm a keen worker willing to learn more and become as good as I can be. I like to think that I have a good sense of humour, I feel that this is essential for a good working yard.
Type of ride work
I have ridden a wide variety of horses over the years in jumping and flat work, also out hunting. I haven't had an extensive career in competiion, however have done local showjumping and cross country, competed at dressage up to novice level, this is due to lack of access to a horse.
I have been at college for the last five years doing equine studies, over the years I have had intensive training sessions in jumping, dressage and cross country, also learning the theory of riding.
Competition details
Only local shows competiting at prelim and novice dressage and show jumping.
