 Due
to the nature of our organisation all volunteers
must undergo a Criminal Records Bureau check prior
to commencing their placement with us. Volunteers
must be over 14 years old. Volunteering at Lords
House Farm is a rewarding and vital support
mechanism to enable our dedicated team of staff to
support the community with our work. There is a
range of volunteering opportunities in a variety of
subjects.
In particular we always need volunteers to come and
assist with our riding therapy sessions, Tuesday to
Friday afternoons. This involves leading and side
walking with our specially trained horses and
ponies. Other opportunities involve working
alongside our special needs students in a support
role in the animal care unit, assisting in our
horticulture unit and general maintenance jobs.
Training is given to all volunteers as well as
opportunities for personal development, complimented
by a mentoring scheme. Volunteers are awarded
certificates through internal recognition schemes
and nationally recognised awards, such as the AQA
unit award scheme, which can be included on your CV
to support future employment. As well as the huge
sense of satisfaction you receive from helping our
groups there is also a social side to volunteering.
You can meet new friends and join in with volunteer
events and outings.
