Talk Horse To Me
For over 25 years I have challenged the norms of horse care - blending science, data and compassion to create real welfare change. "Talk Horse To Me" is my journey as the founder of Forageplus, where we disrupt tradition, question marketing myths, and explore how evidenced-based horse care will build a better life for every horse. Join me because, when we talk horse we can do better for true whole horse welfare - Sarah Braithwaite

In this episode, Sarah Braithwaite, founder of Forageplus and advocate for equine welfare, launches a short podcast series exploring horse welfare through the Five Domains framework, showing how nutrition, environment, health, behavioural interactions and mental state combine to shape a horse's life.
In the first episode we focus on nutrition: why analysing forage matters, how traditional feeds can miss key needs, and how a forage-led approach supports better horse health, behaviour and wellbeing. Next time we’ll cover the environment and how living spaces influence comfort and safety.
