join nobs (national orgination of beaters and picker up )they put you in touch with shoots that need/ want beaters, or ask at local gunshops where the local shoot are and ask them if they need /want beaters , it good to see a youngester wanting to get involed in field sports and not sitting indoors good luck

Hi,

I can give him some grouse beating starting in august next year if you are willing to travel to the north york moors

Do you need a dog to do beating or can you just come and do it yourself. I'd love to do it.

41 year old and would really like to get in to it. Could open a few doors for some airgun shooting too

Sorry for hijacking mate. Good luck finding your son some beating

As above, try nobs, or find out who the local keepers are, go speak to them & offer your number for them to give you a ring if there short handed. Never known a keeper refuse to put a number in there beaters book & 99% will ring you if there short. Bare in mind some shoots never struggle.
