Experience with Horses
I have been riding horses for 15 years. I used to work at the riding school where I learnt to ride for around 12 years. Whilst there I was regularly mucked out, groomed, turned in/out & led rides out every weekend, I also taught adults & children how to ride. During this time I volunteered at a yard that focused on retraining & rehoming retired & injured racehorses. This yard also had other animals that I also looked after; including goats, chickens & a pig. I also volunteered at a riding school for the disabled, where I assisted both able bodied & disabled riders in lessons & on hacks. I currently have my own horse called Nala who I have had for 3 years. She is a 7 year old, 16.2 hh, chestnut mare. Nala is a Welsh x Thoroughbred x Appaloosa. Previously I worked on the livery yard Nala was stabled at, I was regularly left to run the yard alone. I am currently completing a degree in Equine Management at University Centre Myerscough.

Strengths and Weaknesses
I most enjoy riding & spending time with the horses in general. I also enjoy helping people out when they are having problems with their horses whether that be ridden or on the ground. Rehabilitating horses & bringing them back into work is also very enjoyable.
I would like to improve my plaiting & clipping skills. I would like to gain more knowledge in general & learn about lots of different disciplines.
I am a very hard worker. I always put the horses first & I will do anything to keep horses happy & healthy.
