The Scootboot Global Barefoot Awards 2026 recognise the individuals, businesses and organisations helping shape the future of barefoot hoof care around the world.

This is about hoof care, it is about horse welfare, long-term soundness, responsible barefoot management and the people building knowledge, trust and greater understanding of what good barefoot care can achieve.

From respected professionals and educators to advocates, businesses and horse owners sharing their own experiences, these Awards celebrate the people creating meaningful change and helping raise the standard of barefoot care.

The Global Barefoot Awards are an opportunity to recognise that contribution, share your story and be part of a global movement advancing better outcomes for horses.
