Bio
Mature groom who is capable, tidy and experienced in all yard duties. Horses welfare is my main priority. Would prefer part time initially with the view to increased hours as I am looking to return to working within the industry.Qualifications
Although I have no formal equine qualifications I believe my working on different yards over the years brings experience. I am always open to learning new ideas as I believe horse care/riding is a life long learning curve.

Equine Work Experience
I have worked on both professional competition and private competition yards. Polo yards. Stud yard work caring for brood mares, foals, and yearlings. National hunt as stable employee and rider. Livery yards. Riding school. Small family yards. Have lots of experience of working sole charge.
Specialities
Having worked on a variety of yards, I bring maturity and experience with the ability to work tidily and efficiently. I have a good knowledge of veterinary care and can turn out to a high standard. Lots of experience working sole charge so need minimal supervision once introduced to how a new yard likes to run.
Type of Ride Work
Over the years I have ridden many different types of horses including Polo ponies, national hunt, some eventers, lead rider taking clients on hacks. I also have experience of bringing on young, green and restarting "problem" horses.
Competition Details
Polo and national hunt competition groom. Volunteer judge for local charity shows.
