Right Weight Road Show Launch
What is the Right Weight? That’s what the International League for the Protection of Horses (ILPH) is asking. You might wonder what that has to do with the welfare of horses in the UK. Like humans, the horse population is growing and not just in numbers but in weight. Like humans, this is a health risk.
The ILPH usually deals with horses which are underweight or neglected because their owners don’t care enough about them. However, people who have overweight horses often love them too much. To help horse owners understand the risk they may be running with their horses the ILPH has launched the Right Weight Road Show.
You can read more about the Right Weight Roadshows at www.ilph.co.uk Alternatively if you would like to host a roadshow contact Mel Bridge on 01384 373171 or mel.bridge@tisali.co.uk for the relevant details. |
