I thought it was time to tell you all about the brilliant volunteers here at Calvert Trust Exmoor. Every week we have volunteers come and help us in the stables. The volunteers help the stables staff to look after us and also they help to enable our guests to be able to ride and carriage drive.
Some of our lovely volunteers |
Whenever there is a group of people coming to the stables to do things with us horses and ponies we need the help of volunteers, they get involved in all sorts of things!
They might be leading one of us, or walking beside us to give a rider some help, or out being a driving groom in the carriage with Duchess or Hendrix.
Brin and some guests being lead by Mike, a regular volunteer |
There are always things for the volunteers to do and the staff say they couldn’t do riding and driving sessions without their help. Some of our volunteers have been coming to help us for years, even longer than Teddy has been here, but we also have some newer ones. Most of the people who come to help love being around us horses and ponies, of course I am usually their special favourite!
New volunteers are always welcome, all us horses and ponies love to meet new faces! Anyone can find out about becoming a volunteer here by speaking to Josh in the office or Nicky in the stables, or visiting the volunteering page.
