🌿 Sustainability doesn’t have to be complicated.

That’s exactly what Ruth Dancer will be exploring in our upcoming Environmental Suitability Webinar.

With years of experience helping trainers and racing professionals start their sustainability journey, and through her current work with British Equestrian, Ruth understands that meaningful change starts with practical, achievable actions.

It’s not about perfection or changing everything overnight. It’s about making small improvements that benefit horse welfare, our workplaces and the environment.

📅 It’s not too late to join us – secure your place today!

Webinar: Environmental Suitability in Racing

Join us for an informative session exploring how environmental factors can impact racehorse welfare and performance. This webinar will cover key considerations for ensuring horses are kept in conditions that support health, safety, and optimal performance, including temperature, humidity, ventilation, footing, and stable management.

Whether you’re a trainer, stable staff, or industry professional, this session will provide practical guidance on assessing and improving the racing environment to maximise both welfare and performance.
