Experience with Horses
I am currently a hunt groom for a family yard. I have sole charge and responsibility for the horses. I do all yard duties, ride, lunge, hunt.
I clip, plait, ready for hunting and drive the horse box.
I order the feed, decide what the horses eat, arrange farrier, vet as required. Clean tack and am responsible for aftercare of the horses.
Key Skills
I have my BHSAI
ABRS grooms diploma
I enjoy working with others but currently work alone and have all responsibility for decisions about the horses.
I have worked in a riding school, been a freelance riding instructor. I have bred my own foal and competed in most disciplines. I can drive a horse box and pull a trailer.
I can turn out for shows, hunting, plaiting with bands or sewing.
I currently look after the family dogs, house security and gardening during summer.
