all im asking for is a bit of guidance but thats obviously seems to be too much!!!

start with getting one or two good books mate, Falconry and Hawking by P Glasier and Understanding Birds of Prey by Nick Fox, they will give you all the basic information you need, also look out for a local falconer or club maybe try the IFF website, likely there will be someone local too you might let you go along, good luck

See If they take voluntary work. Read books, ask library to get any in to read.

See if and local clubs and get out with them from a season and well done for asking for help before getting the bird.
