The Ukraine still tops the news and the war is on-going, soon to enter its fourth week. Millions of people are fleeing the bombings and they bring their animals too if they can. Horses sometimes cannot be taken along as roads and bridges are destroyed and fodder is almost unavailable. In today's episode I am talking to Pawel Jasinski from Poland who normally operates horse trails in different countries including the Ukraine. Poland shares a long border with Ukraine and is the prime spot to get relief aid into the war-torn country as well as welcoming refugees. Pawel speaks Ukrainian and has a lot of friends there, bringing groups of riders several times a year. When the war started he decided to do something to help the Ukrainian people. He started a fundraiser and personally drives convoys of aid to the border where it is received by his Ukrainian horse riding partner who makes sure it will be distributed to those in need. In today's episode he tells us about the Ukraine and his views on the war.

Have you ever wondered how to volunteer at those large horse events?   Or what about working abroad at a horse facility? Today's EQA podcast is sharing insider secrets on just that.  Probably the most important thing to remember is no volunteering job is too small if it gets you in the door. Being the gate opening at the warm-up ring may seem like a small position however you will get to watch all the jumpers.  Working abroad goes the same way, perhaps cleaning stalls isn't as glamorous as leading beach gallops but there is always potential to learn about a new breed. There are lots of great resources available out there make sure you check out our website and receive your copy of Horse Riding in every state and country for free.
