The 7th Red Rose Dairy Discussion Group Coach Trip took place on 28th February 2017.
48 dairy farmers met at Oakhill Veterinary Centre in Goosnargh for breakfast before boarding a coach to visit 2 outstanding dairy farms in Carlise.
The morning saw a visit to Wormanby Holsteins, run by the Hodgson family, and after lunch at the local golf club, the group visited Justicetown Farm, owned by David Coulthard.

Over the last few years there has been an emergence of a new strain of Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease, which is being called RHD2.
This new strain can affect rabbits of any age and can lead to death in many cases. With confirmed cases in Lancashire, we strongly advise that rabbits are vaccinated against this disease (as well as the usual combined Myxomatosis-RHD vaccine).
Click here for further information about RHD2.
If you’re not available during this time, please contact us and we can inform you on all available dates.
Contact your nearest Oakhill Veterinary Centre to make an appointment for your rabbit/s.
