Hopefully someone on the forum will be able to recommend a shearer in your area. I know alot of people here recommend the singing shearer (also on this forum) who travels around the country and will do small flocks.

Alternatively, have a look in the GFD flock book for breeders in your area - they may be able to put you in touch with a shearer willing to do your sheep.

Good luck!

We are looking for a sheep shearer to shear our four sheep.  We need someone this week 11th 12 or 13th July.  Can you help?
We are in Aberdare.
thanks

There's someone on Preloved in Aberdare who breeds Herdwicks and has been advertising recently. Just thinking he/she might either shear their own or have someone in who does it for them.
