Are you unsure about your Health & Safety responsibilities?
Do you want to reduce the risk of accidents at your premises?
Local Councils in Dorset are working in partnership with the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) and Kingston Maurward College to bring those in the equestrian industry a free health and safety training workshop.
The workshop will take place at Kingston Maurward College, Dorchester (DT2 8PX) from 10.30 3.45 on Thursday 12 November 2009.

There will also be talks from the Police, a vet and a farrier on best practice.
