MEET THE TEAM

THIS PEOPLE MAKE IT ALL POSSIBLE

Written by equine vets & specialists, promoted across the horse industry

This website is a significant undertaking to provide up to date information to horse owners, students and riders free of charge and without advertising. The organisation is set up as a Community Interest Company supported by a number of charities and individual donations.  We are delighted to be working with a number of equine vets, specialists and ambassadors to develop almost 700 pages of content.

We are also seeking funding from national governing bodies, relevant organisations and individual owners so that we can develop a well designed, robust technological platform for this information with relevant search and promotional tools. Please contact us if you are able to join as a sponsor or can add equine veterinary insights.
