I have a lot of experience using a industrial forklift ticket, especially when I was working at George Wright Farms, where I was potato carting so had to unload and load my trailer. I also currently have a tele-handler certificate I used this on a regular basis especially when potato carting at my current job as this is the main forklift to load and unload with rather than a industrial; I have also loaded potatoes lorries with a telehandler as well. To follow on, I also hold my cross cutters chainsaw certificate I have experience using a chainsaw cutting up logs in the winter in my previous job at GWF. In terms of tractor experience I have done lots of potato carting using a 8 tonne box trailer as well as grain carting where I had a 12 tonne grain trailer. I have also have done most of the farms hedge/verge cutting that I work on currently which holds 900 acres of land. Following on, I have experience rolling after the plough as well as after the drill. In terms of cultivation's I also have experience using a He-Va Subsoiler which I used on the potatoe land and also I have experience power-harrowing and discing. I have also done lots of topping cutting potatoes, grassland and mustard. Finally, I recently attained my PA1 and PA2 tickets however I do not have very much experience but am very keen to get more.
I have showed cattle at the Tendering, Suffolk, Norfolk and Hadleigh shows and helped with lambing at college.

I have not had any sick leave and I am in good health.
I come from a non farming background in Lawford, Essex. Ever since a young age I have had a passion for farming and it is all I have ever wanted to do. I have worked on two farms in the area carrying out a variety of tasks such as trailer work, cultivations, showing cattle and much more as well at studying at Otley college for two years.
