How you can make a difference

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED NOW!

Volunteers are the life-blood of the Unicorn Centre. We work closely with the Millennium Volunteers organisation - one of our volunteers won the North East Millennium Volunteer of the Year award in London!

If you are 14 years or older, we would love to hear from you. You could help us in a variety of ways:

* Working on the yard, mucking out, grooming, tack cleaning
* In lessons: leading ponies or sidewalking with riders
* Train to become a RDA Instructor
* Helping with fundraising events: catering, helping with raffles, tombolas, public collections etc

We particularly welcome volunteers with time to give in the evenings and weekends, as well as during the working day. Full training will be given.

If you are interested in volunteering at the Unicorn Centre, please telephone Jenny for an application pack. Then, when your application has been processed you will be invited to attend an Induction Evening. They are held regularly throughout the year. You'll receive a tour, a talk about the work of the Centre, demonstration of Basic Horse Handling Skills within an RDA Lesson, and a Health & Safety Induction. Not to be missed! Once you have had your Induction, you can start volunteering at the Centre.

Or would you like to join our Trustees' committee? We currently have vacancies for people with the commitment and time to spend at least one evening a month making decisions about the management of the Centre or arranging social and money-making events.
