Animal care training at Dawlish Gardens Trust

Whether you are aiming for employment in animal care or just find them therapeutic this area can cater for you.

Learning about feeding, housing and cleaning  you will participate in all aspects of day to day care. Feeding includes veg and fruit preparation according to species and also the weighing out of the correct amount of concentrated feed. Housing maintenance might be repairing any damage, painting to keep everything looking smart or maybe constructing something new in partnership with the site maintenance and woodwork teams.

Of course there is always cleaning, mucking out, washing feeders and drinkers, the list is endless!
