Are Welfare and Performance Mutually Exclusive in Equestrian Sport?
This week, we’re bringing you something significant - a recorded presentation by Dr. David Marlin from March 2023, all about SLO—Social Licence to Operate.
This presentation predates some of the major welfare controversies that have recently hit the headlines: the military horses galloping through London, the Blue Tongue outcry, and the shockwaves caused by a dressage rider’s training video.
David has been at the forefront of the SLO conversation for years, and we believe now is the perfect time to revisit this critical topic. His presentation reminds us what’s truly at stake—the trust and acceptance that allow us to keep enjoying our horses, our sports, and our industry. If we don’t take Social Licence seriously, we risk losing it all—for our hobby, our profession, and for the horses we care about so deeply.
David’s presentation is titled - Are Welfare and Performance Mutually Exclusive in Equestrian Sport?
You can watch the full presentation on YouTube or on the AskAnimalweb.com website, but for now, enjoy this powerful audio recording. Feel free to comment on our social platforms or email us. Thank you for tuning in!
