***Message to clients***

I just wanted to let you all know that there has been a confirmed case of strangles at my father’s livery yard. I want to assure you that I have had no contact with any of the infected horses there and any other horse on the yard for over a week now.

I will be keeping my distance from the yard until all clear and as an added precaution, I’ll be taking extra biosecurity measures to ensure everyone’s horses stay safe — including disinfecting tools, changing clothes and footwear between yards, and maintaining strict hygiene protocols.

It’s business as usual, and appointments will continue as planned. Your horses’ health and safety are my top priority, and I’m being extremely careful to prevent any possible risk of transmission.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Thank you for your understanding and continued trust,

Matt Strawson
