Equestrian Employer Details
We are a small horse yard with 13 horses and ponies, many of which are older and have different health conditions. We are planning to downscale the riding lessons and treks we currently offer to allow our older horses to retire, and to upscale pony experiences instead. Most of our clients are children and teenagers. Almost all staff are international volunteers.
