About The Moredun Foundation
Moredun's strong links with those actively involved in livestock health are enhanced by a variety of initiatives.
The Moredun Foundation has a membership programme which enables those working directly with livestock to receive the latest information about our research and to advise us on disease prioritites.
Moredun has an active group of over 40 volunteer Regional Advisors throughout the UK who serve as a direct link between Moredun and livestock farmers.
Many farmers have been active in helping our scientists with surveys and providing valuable samples for study. This collaboration has proven to be a valuable aid for our research.
Moredun organises regular livestock health events throughout England, Scotland and Wales to meet with farmers and vets and discuss new developments to help improve livestock health and welfare.
Our livestock health specialists regularly attend and present talks at agricultural shows, specialist events, meetings and CPD events for large animal vets. We also regularly take part in webinars.
In our commitment to support the next generation of farmers and vets, our scientists deliver lectures at vet schools and agricultural colleges, host student visits and support dissertation projects.
The Moredun Foundation Award Scheme provides an opportunity for our members to carry out a project to enhance their personal and professional development in livestock health and welfare.
