The Great Weight Debate are available until February 15.
The webinar, presented by Professor Pat Harris, looked at different perspectives on equine weight management from across the equestrian sector, including the views of a horse owner, livery yard owner and coach, an equine welfare officer, an equine vet, a nutritionist and a competition judge.
A panel of speakers including included Lucy Grieve, Helen Gale, Beth Maloney, Liz Bulbrook, David Ingle, Penny Baker and Dr Tamzin Furtado, looked at the issues preventing owners/carers from managing horse, pony and donkey weight effectively, despite many previous and ongoing attempts from industry to effect change. They explored how obstacles may be overcome and the discussions will be supported by a human behaviour change researcher.
