***A few Spaces Still Available! ***
After the summer we have some spaces available on the NC Horse Care Course. Beginning on September the 3rd, on Thursday evenings, 6.30 to 8pm.
This is a National Certificate course which takes two years, covering 12 units with topics such as lunging, transportation and more! We would recommend either doing the NPA level 4 course, if you don’t have prior experience or dropping us an email if you are not sure. This course is for those born before February 29th 2012 to be eligible for the course fee to be wavered! (Which makes the course free!)
To do a pre-enrolment form please email [email protected] for the pre enrolment link.
This is a great way to access a qualification in horse care from Qualifications Scotland delivered through the University of the Highlands and Islands!

Please comment below if you are able to assist. Your help is appreciated!
