Livestock

Working on the farmyard, you will get your hands dirty when mucking out, feeding and watering the animals, from turkeys and pigs to alpacas and ferrets!

Working with staff and other volunteers you will learn a range of ways to care for the animals such as grooming and handling techniques. There’s a lot of sweeping and mucking out, so it can be quite physically demanding.

This role does involve a lot of smelly jobs, so volunteers must be willing to get their hands dirty and have a true love of animals to ensure their welfare.

Available Tuesday to Sunday.

Stables

Lots of mucking out and poo-picking!

But not only that! You will be feeding and watering the horses, as well as working with staff and other volunteers to learn grooming techniques, tacking up (putting the saddle and bridle on the horse) and lead reining (leading the horse).

This role does involve rather a lot of smelly jobs, so volunteers must be willing to get their hands dirty and have a true love of animals to ensure their welfare.

Please note: Unfortunately we
cannot offer any free riding to our volunteers.

Available Tuesday to Sunday.

Garden

You might be weeding, tidying, raking leaves, building new structures, painting signs, composting, planting, harvesting... everything that you can think of to help with interactive elements of our Garden Project.
