Trailer company signed up to supply the 2008 Olympics
Equine ambulance makes horse sense
A DORSET trailer company will be supplying emergency transport for the four legged stars of this summer’s Olympic Games. Wessex Trailers has secured a deal to send two of its specialist horse trailer ambulances out to Hong Kong for the 2008Olympics.Sales manager Tony Carella said: “Hong Kong were looking for a trailer for horse ambulances because they’ve got the Olympics coming up, they’re holding the equestrian events at Hong Kong quay.“A member of the Jockey Club came over especially; he was here for two or three days and went to look at other suppliers as well. But he fell in love with our trailer and loved the product.”The order also includes four of Wessex’s regular ‘Pegasus Equestrian’ trailers and Mr. Carella says such a major deal shows how far the business at Waddock Cross has come since it was established 30 years ago. Wessex Trailers has already received some prestigious orders for its horse ambulance, including for the Blue Cross and Her Majesty’s Royal Household Cavalry –, but Mr. Carella says the Olympic order is extra special. “It’s not everyone who can say they are providing specialist equipment for the Olympic Games. “We are very proud to be a part of the 2008 games and maybe when it comes round to 2012 we might be a part f that also”

Wessex Trailers Working In Partnership With Tui Equestrian
Wessex Trailers have kindly donated one of their trailers so that Tui Equestrian can continue to provide demonstrations at shows and help promote safety awareness when travelling.
In recent months the Tui Bar has been shown to help save horses lives when involved in a trailer accident.
With the help from Hampshire’s Fire and Rescue Specialist, Jim Green, it has been proven that the Tui Bar is of great help when trying to free trapped horses.
With a unique safety release system unlike anything seen before the Tui Bar not only acts as a brace to the trailer when involved in an accident but also helps to free your horse when in distress, cast or trapped in the trailer.
