Croft End is a professional training centre and riding school near Oldham, which prides itself on turning out students with the skills and knowledge required by the industry. The centre, which adjoins the Daisy Nook Country Park, has a strong focus on developing employability skills, so you’ll need to be punctual, reliable and enthusiastic.
