lessons for several hours a day, usually in hour-long periods,
generally in addition to caring for the horses.

award and BHS qualifications, or the UKCC equivalent, ranging from
the Groom’s Certificate in Horse Knowledge and Care to BHS
Assistant Instructor Level One. Having owned a pony or horse and
ridden for a number of years helps too.
