Horse tram season underway for 2024
A newly qualified farrier has told Manx Radio he ‘jumped at the chance’ of completing his training on Island.
Luke Collison has undertaken a four-year ‘on the job apprenticeship’ with the Douglas Bay Horse Tram Service.
He’s responsible for looking after the horses' hoofs – a profession which combines blacksmith and veterinary skills.
Luke, who was on-hand as the horse tram season got underway last week, told Manx Radio the training was something he’s always wanted to do:
British citizens living on Island eligible to vote in UK election
Financial assistance for hospitality businesses over TT period
Ronaldsway Met Office issue yellow alert for heavy rain
Unemployment rate falls by 0.1%
Children treated for hypothermia after quarry swim
Covid booster jabs to be rolled out this week
