This Bonfire Night, we would like you to listen and share a powerful firework special of our Field Notes podcast.
Today we mark the one-year anniversary of the loss of our beloved Phoenix.
For those who don’t know, Phoenix came to us in August 2021 in a very bad way. This young foal had been severely burned in a devastating arson attack on his stables in Kent, and after initial round-the-clock care from Lingfield Equine Vets he was brought to Redwings so we could give him the ongoing intensive support he so desperately needed.
With just a few days to go until the closing date for the first Animal Hero of the Year Award - sponsored by Redwings - in the Stars of Norfolk and Waveney Awards, we’re celebrating one of our own.
‘Sounds of the Sanctuary’ - which has so far been downloaded nearly 4000 times – is back, along with its sister podcast ‘Field Notes’.
Redwings, The Horse Trust and the Society of Master Saddlers (SMS) have published new data from a short survey of UK Saddlery Fitters which reveals fascinating insights into the experience and perspective of these vital equine professionals.
The three organisations came together to create a new online course for saddlery fitters, launched this summer, which focusses on the unique role SMS members play in observing and helping to resolve some of the issues that may affect horse welfare around the country.
Redwings has welcomed the launch of a new strangles vaccine in the UK that offers a major step forward in our efforts to reduce the spread of the most widespread equine infectious disease.
Redwings is delighted to have worked with The Horse Trust on new online training for The Society of Master Saddlers looking at welfare issues.
What to do if you see a horse you are concerned about in the hot weather.
We're saying a huge thank you to SPILLERS™ for their support as part of their most recent equine obesity campaign.
The feed company have pledged to convert equine weight loss kilos into £££s, to raise £5,000 for us here at Redwings.
Sixteen ‘Best at Appleby’ welfare awards – organised by Redwings and supported by several National Equine Welfare Council members – were given out for equine health, happiness and horsemanship at this year’s Appleby Horse Fair.
The annual Gypsy, Roma and Traveller gathering officially began last Thursday (9th June) and ran until Monday (13th June) in the Cumbrian town of Appleby-in-Westmorland.
