**About the role**:
Your principal duties and responsibilities will include
- Providing care by routine observation, feeding, medicating, grooming, weighing and worming the donkeys, mules, ponies and hinnies.
- Assisting with New Arrivals routines such as farriery, dentals, veterinary examinations and vaccinations.
- Providing care for donkeys with special, additional and behavioural needs and requirements.
- Mucking out, feeding and bedding up of barns and stables and distributing hay, haylage and bagged feedstuffs.
- Ordering, preparing and administering medications under veterinary advice.

- Providing feedback on a daily basis to the New Arrivals Manager on matters such as donkey health and feeding regimes and maintain up to date records for all equines within the unit.
**The contract**:
