We’re very excited to welcome Mattie Hill and Stacey Blunn to the Gibbs Marsh team this week!

Mattie joins us having graduated from the University of Bristol earlier this year. Growing up around horses in a veterinary family, she developed an early passion for equine practice. Outside of work, Mattie enjoys spending time with her black labrador Inka or playing hockey.

Most of our clients will already know Stacey well, she has worked as a groom locally for almost 20 years and has recently returned from grooming at the U25 Eventing World Championships in Millstreet. She brings with her extensive equine knowledge and skills, to assist our vets both on the road and at the clinic.

They are both looking forward to getting out and meeting all our lovely clients! 💙

🐴 EQUINE FLU ALERT 🐴

There have recently been outbreaks of equine flu reported across the country. Equine flu is a highly contagious respiratory virus that can spread through direct horse-to-horse contact, through the air, and indirectly via people, clothing, equipment, and vehicles.

Vaccination is your horse's best protection. Even horses that don't travel or compete can be at risk.

Signs of Equine Flu to watch for:
• High temperature (above 38.5°C)
• Coughing
• Nasal discharge
• Loss of appetite
• Lethargy or reduced performance

If your horse shows any of these symptoms, isolate them immediately and contact your vet for advice.

Help prevent the spread:
• Keep vaccinations up to date
• Isolate new arrivals for 2–3 weeks
• Follow good biosecurity practices
• Monitor horses closely for signs of illness
• Avoid sharing equipment when travelling or competing
• Limit unnecessary contact with unfamiliar horses

By working together and maintaining good biosecurity, we can help reduce the spread of equine flu and protect our horses.

📞 If you have any concerns or would like advice on vaccination schedules or biosecurity measures, please contact the office and speak to one of our team.
