Hi everyone,

I'm doing a postgraduate dissertation looking at the science content of equestrian magazines and I'm looking for back copies of various equestrian magazine. If anyone has any old issues (within last 6months) of the following lying around:

Your Horse
Horse
Horse & Rider
Eventing Magazine

...and you no longer want them, I'd be very willing to take them off your hands! As a poor student I can't afford to pay for the magazines, but I am willing to contribute to any postage charges incurred.

Please PM me if you think you'll be able to help! Thanks

I can send you some, pm me your address if you want. I'm interested though, what postgrad are you doing and where? I'm applying for them at the moment and just had a really disappointing rejection unfortunately.
 
I am a total magazine junkie and have loads. I see others have replied but if you can't get what you are looking for, let me know. OH will be pleased to see the back of them.

Thanks to everyone who's PM'd me! I'll be in touch soon - however, someone has just told me that they believe the British Library stocks all old magazines so it might be easier for me to go there and look at them (as I live in London). Am trying to work out how to find out if the BL definitely has the magazines I want but if they don't then I'll get in touch with the various people who have so kindly offered to help!

@Natassia - I'm actually doing an MSc in Science Communication (effectively science journalism) at Imperial College, London. However as a keen horse-rider/owner (and an amateur equestrian journo on the side) I convinced my supervisor that I should look at the science that is included in equestrian magazines!
