The aim of the club is to provide cost effective access to veterinary advice and services to support your enterprise. We would like to offer pro-active planning and performance enhancing services rather than fire brigade sorting of disasters after they have happened. We believe this is a much more effective use of our services and much more beneficial to you. We appreciate that veterinary input is perceived as costly – which it is if we are dealing with problems once they have occurred. We would love to be able to provide a cost effective advisory service. Hence the introduction of Lanes Vets Flock Health Club.

The aim of the quarterly meetings is to cover relevant issues for the upcoming season including health issues, performance targets and creation of a working Red Tractor flock health plan. As a member of the club you will be able to request topics to cover. Topics we have covered so far include ewe nutrition and meeting lamb market demands, worming strategies and resistance, factors affecting lamb growth rates and lameness control. Quite a lot to be getting on with!
