About Us
Scropton Horse Centre is a busy riding centre in Derbyshire with excellent indoor and outdoor facilities. We are home to both Scropton Riding for the Disabled and Scropton Equestrian Centre; providing activities with horses for all abilities; mainstream and additional needs.
We are an ambitious team looking to create a centre of excellence for horse based activities with a focus on developing health and well-being as well as sport.
Current Opportunities
Part time Groom roles
We’ve got some great opportunities for you to join our centre as a groom, helping to take care of our horse and pony team. We’re a busy riding school offering both Riding for the Disabled and mainstream riding lessons as well as ground-based activities with horses.
We’re looking for enthusiastic, motivated people with experience of horses. Our grooms are very much a part of our centre’s team, looking after our horses and working alongside our coaches, volunteers and participants. It’s a great opportunity to use a wide range of horse and people skills in a very satisfying role.
We currently have opportunities for:
· A part-time evening groom
· Freelance grooms to help us with occasional cover
For more information about joining our team as a groom please contact apply@scroptonequestrian.com
Can you help us find a new four-legged team member so that we can help more people?
We're looking for a healthy well schooled horse over the age of 6 with a good nature, over 15.1hh
It's been a real challenge rebuilding our horse team since Covid and we still need more horses so that we can get back to pre-Covid activity levels. We have waiting lists for RDA sessions and we really want to be able to help more people.
Any horse joining our team will work in RDA sessions and also in the mainstream sessions we run alongside RDA. They'll receive the best of care and are guaranteed to be loved!
We have a reasonable budget to buy our new team member, but would also consider loaning.
If you or anyone you know can help us with our horse hunt, please get in touch enquiries@scroptonequestrian.com
If you’re interested in being a part of what we offer at Scropton why not consider volunteering
