The Cause
Equine grass sickness is a devastating disease, which is fatal in the majority of cases. There is no cure, and the cause remains unknown. Recent developments in research mean that we have some strong clues to follow up, but we need vital funding to give these projects the green light.
We have two incredible prizes, generously donated by The Stirling Trailer Centre and Ikonic Saddlery, to help us raise the funds needed for equine grass sickness research projects. This means that apart from the small fees charged by Crowdfunder, all proceeds we raise will contribute to grass sickness research!
The last few years have seen the net slowly tighten on the suspected causal agents for grass sickness. Researchers have taken a broad approach, from examining the weather, environment and management risk factors, together with close examination of samples from grass sickness cases.
Our EGSF Chair, Anne Logan, is passionate about protecting future generations of horses from this disease. She is asking you please, donate generously to our cause, and be in with a chance to win either the Ifor Williams HBX506 horse trailer, or the Ikonic Evolution saddle fitted to horse and rider.
