Ask local farmers. Perhaps ask at the feed merchant.  We shear our own but we are too far to come to you.

We use Campbell Hill (yes he is a Kiwi !) who is based in Callington.  He may be able to help as he even travels all the way down to the Lizard.  He's also very good!

You can try the Singing Shearer on here - he travels all over so might have a job near you soon. He's very good and did my 2 ewes.
