Experiencing the daily life and challenges at a Horse Rescue Shelter, based at Barn and Storeybrook Farm.

In the latest episode of Equestrian Voices, host Caroline Culbertson interviews Tahlia Fischer and Olivia Alcorta, two equestrians who lead horse rescue organisations. Tahlia runs All Seated in a Barn, while Olivia leads Freedom Equine Rescue and Storeybrook Farm.

Tahlia and Olivia share their personal stories about how they came to run horse rescues, discussing the day-to-day reality of caring for these animals. They also address common misconceptions about horse rescues, emphasising the substantial costs involved, such as food, shelter, and medical care.

One of the best ways to help horse rescues, they say, is by donating money or supplies. For those interested in equestrian education, Equestrian Masterclass offers digital courses, currently holding the #1 position in North America. A discount of $50 is available for an annual membership.

The conversation also touches on the importance of proper equestrian equipment. Winderen offers innovative equipment driven by research and technology, and Farris Equestrian sponsors the ultimate riding glove and smartphone-carrying saddle pad.

Connaway & Associates Equine Insurance Services is another organisation that supports horse rescues, providing personalized coverage for equine mortality, major medical & surgical coverage, and more.

Throughout the interview, Tahlia and Olivia share what they want people to know about their lives and organisations. They discuss what they need from the public to succeed and keep their organisations running, highlighting the crucial role that donations and support play in their mission to save horses.

Tune in to Equestrian Voices to learn more about Tahlia Fischer, Olivia Alcorta, and the reality of running a horse rescue. And remember, every little bit helps in making a difference for these animals in need.
