I'm a newbie - about to relocate to North Yorkshire!

[Penguin_Toes]

Hello everyone!

This is my first ever post, I've been reading the forum for a few months now in my lunchtimes and have found it to be really interesting, so I thought it was about time I signed up!

I currently live in Cheshire and I'm having weekly riding lessons and helping a friend with her horse. I used to own a skewbald gelding when I was a teenager and I sometimes feel like a bit of a crazy horse spinster, buying magazines, reading about schooling and ordering the Robinsons catalogue when I really have no need to! I just can't help myself!

Anyway I am hoping to relocate to North Yorkshire in the next few months, my partner has a new job in Leyburn so we will be living somewhere around there (perhaps Richmond, Catterick Village or Thirsk).

Could any Yorkshire peeps suggest yards/equistrian places in the area that I could approach for work? I don't mind where or what the job involves, I just want to take this opportunity of a fresh start to find a job I really enjoy, rather than the office work I currently do.

Thanks for reading!

Hi there!

I'm in west yorkshire, although not far form the north yorks border. The big places I know up there are Northallerton and Richmond equestrian centres, and there's also eleanor mercer equestrian too. Think Helen Bells yard is not too far away from those either.

But there are plenty of hunts and yards up there, so I'm sure you won't have a problem finding a job

Hi. I live in Leyburn and keep my two horses locally on diy livery . Leyburn and nearby Middleham are centers for the racing community with lots of racing yards, if that is your cup of tea.they often want people. There are a few livery yards and schools locally but i have never seen them asking for staff. Where will your other half be working.
