Between 5 July and the 19 July the 2025 VETS with HORSEPOWER event will involve visits to four venues in Italy - hence the name for the event “The Italian Job”, plus Zurich and Saarlouis. For those who might not be aware of the HORSEPOWER Project, we are a group of biking vets with a common ideology of sharing our experiences and knowledge with as many vets as possible, whilst also raising money for very deserving charities. More detailed information about us, our supported charities and our riders can be found on our webpage and on Facebook. To date, we have raised £1,067,000 for other charities. The riders donate their time and holidays, their bikes and their expertise.
This year's Italian events include full-day CPD events at Lodi (Milan) [TUESDAY 8th], Perugia [THURSDAY 10th July], Sassari (Sardinia) [FRIDAY 11th July] and Pisa [MONDAY 14 July]. After that we will travel to Niederlenz (near Zurich) and on to Saarlouis (Germany) to do full CPD sessions with long- standing Vets with Horsepower supporters. The Italian section of the tour is unique in that for each of the 4 Italian events the CPD program is completely different. It includes a totally unique event in Sardinia dedicated to the donkey.
We would really love to see lots of support for this year’s amazing charities. These include:
1. CHANGING LIVES MALAWI
2. SAVING THE SURVIVORS
3. GAMBIA HORSE AND DONKEY TRUST
4. SHYLOWEN HORSE SANCTUARY
5. THE MOZAMBIQUE VETERINARY FACULTY IN MAPUTO
