R.O.R Helpline for Ex-racehorse Owners

The Retraining of Racehorses organisation has long been a tremendous source of information, advice and support for ex-racehorse owners. Their website www.ror.org.uk is a goldmine of information, whether you need advice on care matters like diet and schooling, or are looking for competitions and events to take part in. They have had an email query service for some time.
Email: asktheexperts@ror.org.uk

Now they have also set up a telephone helpline for worried ex-racehorse owners.

The telephone number is 01780 740773

This is the phone number for the RoR consultants Fred and Rowena Cook of Equine Management & Training. If they are unable to answer your call immediately you're invited to leave a message and they will return your call as soon as possible. The helpline is available seven days a week.

Both Fred and Rowena Cook have extensive experience and expertise working with all types of horses from the various equestrian disciplines whether it be ground training, backing, schooling and jumping young horses or re-schooling and corrective training for older horses. Over recent years more and more horses off the track have benefited from their retraining and progressive schooling programmes, subsequently taking up new lives hunting, show jumping, eventing, dressage etc.

It's good to know that help is around when you need it. ( And with ex-racehorses, bless'em, that can be pretty often !)
