The Great British Horse Bedding Survey

Enter now to win fabulous prizes every month

Horse bedding can be the source of multiple respiratory problems among our horses. Spores of the notorious Aspergillus mould can attack the airways, weaken performance and cause COPD. That’s why regular changes of clean bedding are critical to our horses’ health and welfare – especially in winter.

You can help reduce health problems by taking part in the first UK Horse Bedding Study.

‘We intend to run the survey for one whole year’ says Fiona Hill of Sorbeo Horse Bedding. ‘There are no real figures out there and the horse bedding industry will benefit hugely by knowing horse owners’ preferences. We also hope to use the data to link respiratory problems and horses’ health with types of bedding’

By taking part you will automatically be placed in a monthly draw to win prizes which include horse bedding, lessons, saddlepads and equine charts.

    Do you use rubber matting?

    Do you use banks against the walls?
