Equine Open Events

For students wishing to study equine courses at a higher education (HE) level, we offer dedicated equine open events during the Winter and Spring months. To attend these events, we ask that you BOOK in ADVANCE.

If you are wishing to study equine or farriery courses at post GCSE level, as an apprenticeship or as a part-time course, you DO NOT need to book in advance to reserve a place at our open event. See a list of open event dates
