Liability on Yards: Who’s at Fault? Join Our Second Yard Insurance Webinar

Following the success of the first Livery Yard Insurance webinar of our series, ‘Understanding Your Yard Insurance’, SEIB and LiveryList are back with the second session, designed to help yard owners better understand the liabilities and risks involved in running a yard.

Our next webinar, ‘Liability on Yards: Who’s at Fault?’, takes place on Tuesday 1st of December 2026, from 7pm to 8pm.

We’ll explore some of the situations where liability may arise on a livery yard, helping you understand the key considerations and how different types of insurance may be relevant.

What does liability mean for livery yard owners?

When something goes wrong on a livery yard, understanding who may be responsible isn’t always straightforward. An accident involving a horse, a client or a member of staff can raise questions about liability, and the circumstances of each incident matter.

Knowing the difference between Public Liability and Employers’ Liability is an important part of understanding your responsibilities as a yard owner.

This webinar will break down these different types of liability in plain English, using practical examples to explain when they may become relevant.

What will the webinar cover?

During the session, we’ll look at:

  • Different types of liability
  • Public Liability
  • Employers’ Liability
  • Practical scenarios
  • Reducing liability on yards

The aim is to make these topics easier to understand, giving you useful information to take back to your own yard.

Who will be hosting?

The webinar will be hosted by:

  • Kathleen Tansey, Equestrian Sales Team Leader at SEIB
  • Cheryl Johns, Founder of LiveryList
  • Tasha Vodden, Head Of Broking & Operations at SEIB

More support for livery yard owners

This webinar is part of our wider series with SEIB, created in response to feedback from our survey of UK livery yard owners. The findings highlighted that many yard owners would welcome clearer guidance on insurance, policy wording and best practice.

Alongside the webinars, our Yard Owner Hub brings together helpful FAQs, practical templates, a glossary of insurance terms and guidance on common yard scenarios, all designed to make insurance information easier to navigate.
