About


A few good friends of mine that I hold very close to my heart have worked in the industry for many years now and have nothing but good things to say about their work and how utterly rewarding it is. I spent a large period of time caring for my Nan who has dementia. Although it absolutely broke my heart to see her as 'not her usual self', it bought me great joy being able to assist her with her daily tasks that used to be normal for her, that were now a difficult task, but also taking her out of the house, or into the garden, or visiting my horses any chance that we got. Creating memories that although she may not remember, ones that myself and my family most definitely will, forever. I currently work in the health industry in reception for a large medical company and have for over 3 years now. I absolutely love my job and love having the opportunity and ability to help patients day in and day out, but due to my passion being to help others in any way that I can, I would love to take that level of passion and helping to a whole other level. After hearing from my friends about how they get to help those in need every single day, I thought this would be a fantastic way to give back to the community by helping others in a more significant, hands on way in hopes to make a positive impact on their lives and daily activities.^& ^&One of my favourite things to do is being outside. I have 4 horses, that I tend to every single morning and every single night! They take up a lot of my time, money and energy, but they are a great tool to have in life because they teach you non-negotiable responsibility from a very young age. I would love for others in the community to experience the feeling that horses give you when you are with them. Walking them, talking to them, or just being with them has an incredible, calming effect. Sometimes, when you just need someone to talk to or for someone to listen, horses and animals in general are your best bet!^&
