  • Stoppin’ Cows Hoppin’: Changing career, planning permission and the best of Noughties pop with hoof trimmer Will Wood
    Jul 26 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Why do cows need their hooves trimming? How do you become a foot trimmer? Who inspired our guest to take the leap?

    Joining us for our latest episode, we welcome Will Wood, level four qualified cattle hoof trimmer and friend and colleague to our first guest Ant Thomas.

    Talking all about cows’ feet, Will tells us the story of why he left his home dairy farm to pursue his career and how watching YouTube videos inspired his move.

    Working alongside his boss Ant Thomas- our first guest of series 1- the pair have built a strong bond and, despite their difference in music taste, continue to make a great team putting animal welfare at the heart of what they do.

    Throughout the episode, we find out how Will’s home project is coming along and how he managed to gain planning permission despite early setbacks.

    Plus, we finish the conversation with a round of quick fire questions and a fun game of this or that.

    Finally, as we come to the end of this year’s Farm Safety Week (a Yellow Wellies initiative), we highlight the importance of health and safety on farm.

    With thanks to our sponsor Howden Rural.

    Can you really make time for fitness when you farm?

    Now, Dave hopes to inspires others to look after their body and wellbeing, supporting farmers to work around their busy schedules.

    As a farmer himself, his understanding for seasonal periods, stress and meal times continues to shape his fitness programs and workouts.

    Listen to see how Dave did it and how you could also follow in his footsteps.

    With thanks to our main sponsor Howden Rural.
