Connecting horse owners, yards, farmers, landowners, transporters and equestrian businesses across Warwickshire when help is needed most.
The Warwickshire Equestrian Emergency Network helps local people connect when something unexpected happens — from missing or loose horses and urgent transport to temporary grazing, damaged fencing, severe weather and other situations where local knowledge or practical help could make a difference.
The idea is deliberately simple. When somebody needs urgent equestrian help, the network makes it easier to reach horse owners, yards, farmers, landowners, transporters and equestrian businesses who may be nearby and able to help.
Explain the situation clearly and include your approximate location, what has happened and what kind of help is needed.
Members nearby may have transport, temporary grazing, local knowledge, equipment or simply know the right person to contact.
People who are able to help can respond directly. Once the situation is resolved, the original post should be updated so everyone knows.
Why local networks? Most equestrian emergencies happen locally. The UK Equestrian Emergency Network helps connect the wider community, while local networks such as Warwickshire Equestrian Emergency Network help put people who are actually nearby in touch with one another.
The network is designed for situations where local people, knowledge, transport, land or practical support may help resolve an urgent equestrian problem.
Share urgent information quickly with local horse owners, yards and landowners when a horse is missing, loose or has been spotted away from home.
Connect with local transporters or horse owners who may know of suitable transport when a horse needs moving unexpectedly.
Find local yards, farmers or landowners who may be able to offer temporary grazing or emergency accommodation.
Share urgent local information when horses, stables, yards or grazing are affected by fire or evacuation becomes necessary.
Connect during flooding, storms, extreme weather or other local events that put horses, yards or access routes at risk.
Reach local people following damaged fencing, fallen trees, unsafe paddocks or other unexpected practical problems.
Sometimes the most useful thing is simply reaching somebody nearby who knows the area, has the right contact or can offer practical assistance.
The wider UK network can help members discover local equestrian emergency communities where nearby support may be more useful.
Help important equestrian alerts reach the right local audience quickly by sharing useful and accurate information.
Important: The Equestrian Emergency Network is a community support network. It does not replace veterinary care, the police, fire and rescue services or other qualified professionals. In an immediate or life-threatening emergency, always contact the appropriate emergency service first.
The Warwickshire Equestrian Emergency Network is designed to make it easier for local horse owners and the wider equestrian community to connect when unexpected help is needed.
If you need urgent local help, post the situation in the Facebook group with your approximate area and the type of assistance required.
Members nearby can respond, share local contacts, tag somebody who may be able to help or pass the information on to others in the area.
The aim is to bring the right local people together quickly, whether that means practical help, local knowledge or simply getting an urgent message seen.
