Sheep Health Planning – Thainstone

Join us for an informative, practical workshop on livestock health and disease.

Animal Health and Welfare Plans are 1 of the 5 elements of the Whole Farm Plan introduced in 2025, and all livestock producers claiming BPS will need to have one in place by 2028. But health planning isn’t just about meeting regulatory requirements, it can also be a valuable tool for improving flock performance, increasing output and boosting profitability.

Join us on Wednesday 9th of December for an informative and practical workshop with Fiona Crowden, SRUC Veterinary Investigation Officer and Ewan Jamieson, Vet and Director at Meadows Veterinary Centre.

This workshop will explore how effective health planning can help you:

• Identify opportunities to improve flock productivity
• Maximise animal health and performance
• Reduce avoidable costs and losses
• Improve overall business output and profitability

Fiona will cover vaccines, wormer and lameness impacts in the flock, with time allowed to encourage discussion of specific topics of interest for attendees. Ewan will discuss topical findings in vet practices and on farm, as well as covering strategies for managing Bluetongue, now the disease has reached Scotland. The workshop aims to highlight how investment in health can translate to improved performance.

Booking is essential for catering purposes.
