Volunteering In Lancashire

[Heather2801]

I'm 17 and really need some help and advise... I've helped out at lots of riding schools, animal sanctuaries and just some owners but I need to work/volunteer at a bigger yard. I need more experience riding and want to learn more about the running of a yard (Being a groom and competition rider ect)

I live in Middleton Manchester, and can only travel by bus... If anyone knows of any yards in my area I would appreciate if you could tell me names and contact details.

Thank youu <3

There are lots around the Preston area, Country farm Stud, bowens sport horses, world horse welfare and a few riders like Ben Hobday, google them as I think some may be abit far if you are in Manchester and not sure you will be able to ride much, they all normally want grooms!

Unfortunately they are all a bit to far out for me,thank you anyway xxx

What about Croft End Eq Centre near Oldham? They have a website and are on Facebook..

I will try there, but I think they charge as they do lessons. Thanks xxx

Oh yes, I have you as a page on Facebook. It sounds really good but I think you might be too far away as I don't have a car. Is there any buses from the Rochdale area th

 

[Heather2801]

That go up to your livery yard? Thank you xxxxxx

 

[WalsdenEC]

Yes one bus direct from Rochdale puts you at the bottom of the lane! Think it's the 590 Todmorden/Halifax x
