GET INVOLVED

VOLUNTEERS

2025 SEASON ** VOLUNTEERS NEEDED.

 

Volunteers usually have a love of everything horsey from grooming, head holding, harnessing and an ability to also ride a bike as safety supporters is ideal.

 

We meet every Wednesday morning from April to October, with pre-season training in March. Opportunities arise throughout the year with some coaches at their premises.

​

Regular attendance at the group is helpful but not compulsory.

​

Loading and unloading wheelchairs requires precision and strength for those able to offer this type of help.

FUND RAISING SUGGESTIONS WELCOME.

 

Fund raising and increasing the visibility and awareness of the charity provides the opportunity for engagement, provision and opportunity.

​

We would welcome any company or organisation who would like to come and see what we offer and discuss how they could support us.

​

Sponsorships are a good way to help provide funding support aswell as increase corporate awareness. Whereas local grants and donations can make a huge difference to our groups' activities.

 

Please get in touch to come and visit us and meet the drivers, coaches, volunteers and of course our lovely horses and ponies.
