My eighteen year old daughter is nearing the end of her equine apprenticeship, to keep it brief she has been working with horses since 13, teaches kids, helps disabled riders, does all the stable management stuff and even deals with assisting the vet on trauma incidents.

She now wants to spend at least six months on an animal conservation project ideally in Africa, as well as working with animals she is keen to spend part of the time on community projects as well.

This market seems to be full of companies offering 'volunteering' positions in exchange for lots of money, many seem to be essentially holidays. Does anyone have any experience and/or recommendations for 'proper' opportunities.

Cheers all
