- Helper with Horses (REF 198)
This Upper Hutt organisation is looking for volunteers to help children and young adults with disabilities to get out doors on these beautiful animals. You'll be leading the horse or walking with rider while providing physical and moral support. Help with grooming is also needed. Training is on the job and there is even a national training scheme available for people who would like to become instructors. You'll need to have a reasonable level of fitness, be compassionate to the rider's needs and be able to practice common sense around the horses.
