World Horse Welfare announces webinar series
Sue Dyson will shed light on common unwanted behaviours in horses.

Wednesday Webinars return for third winter season.

World Horse Welfare has announced the return of its Wednesday Webinar series, with the first three titles revealed.

The webinars, which take place on Zoom, are free to attend. For those who cannot access Zoom, they can be viewed as Facebook Live sessions, and will be uploaded to YouTube afterwards.

'Myth busting: is my horse being a pain or in pain?' is set to kickstart the new series. In the session, Sue Dyson and Rosa Verwijs will dispel some common myths on undesirable horse behaviours, considering what owners and riders may have missed when attempting to resolve these.

This first session will take place on Wednesday 30 November at 7pm.

Following this, the next webinar will be held on Wednesday 14 December with Pippa Funnell and Ailsa Waites on 'Balancing the needs of the horse with the pressure of competition'.

On Wednesday 4 January 2023, Lucy Grieve, Ruth Court and Rachel Andrews will present on 'Cutting costs, not care'. 

Following the presentations, Zoom participants will be able to take part in a Q and A session. To join the session, click here.
