How to advertise for help with horses (mucking out etc)?

[Oo3762]

Hello,

I know this may be an odd question but I'm wondering if anyone can advise on the best way to advertise for someone to help with mucking out / putting horses out / etc on a regular basis? I ask as I currently help my parents do this but can't all the time due to work and my parents struggle with doing this as they are getting older. We're in a pretty rural area - at least 20mins drive from the small city where we are and we've struggled to find anyone who can help out on a regular basis and who has enough experience to put out the horses. If you've any advice or experience that would be useful that'd be so helpful.

Sorry if this is a bit of a silly question but I'm not very familiar with the horse community and have struggled to find anyone so far. Thank you!!

There's a Facebook group in my area where this sort of thing gets advertised and where people post to ask for help. Give us your rough area and somebody might be able to point to one where you are.

Or put up an ad where you buy your tack or feed

Agreed with both the suggestion of a local facebook group (horsey and non horsey) and the local tack shop. Farriers and trainers etc might also be worth asking. Also if you're a member of a RC they might have suggestions too.
