On Friday, 6th October 2023, we were delighted to welcome beneficiaries from Racing Welfare. Over 70 members from the Epsom and Lambourn communities were invited to join us for the day with the 15.22 race named in the charity’s honour. The day also offered an opportunity for those who previously worked in the racing industry to visit the paddock and get up close to the action.
Racing Welfare is a registered charity supporting the workforce of British horseracing. They offer professional guidance and practical help to the stud, stable and racecourse staff whose dedication is vital for the well-being of racing. Their work aims to help people, from recruitment to retirement, to thrive in day to day life and through a range of life’s challenges. They have a national network of welfare officers based in regional offices with a head office in Newmarket. Their work is dependent on donations and successful fundraising activities.
