Large Animal Rescue Training Course: 2020 CANCELLED
Due to the uncertainty surrounding COVID 19, the Western Australian Horse Council has, with regret, elected to cancel the 2020 AR3 Large Animal Rescue Training.
The WA Horse Council, member organisation of the Committee for Animal Welfare in Emergencies (CAWE), is once again bringing the Large Animal Rescue Training Course to the State Equestrian Centre, Brigadoon in May. For further information on the course and to register see the Flyer or visit the WA Horse Council Facebook page.
Local Government Animal Welfare in Emergencies workshops
The inaugural Local Government Animal Welfare in Emergencies workshops were held in August 2019. You can find out more about the workshops on the Local Government Workshop page.
Plans for further training and workshops to be held in 2020 will be considered and the department will work closely with WALGA to consider the needs of local governments. Future events will be posted on this page.
