Racing Welfare helps anyone working or who has worked in the thoroughbred horseracing and breeding industry and their dependents. All who approach Racing Welfare are invited to meet with a Welfare Officer who will assess the individuals’ situation and develop a plan that empowers the person to address their situation and support them as needed.

We offer a confidential and non judgemental service, see our confidentiality code and what it means to you. This gives people the assurance to come forward and talk to us about their issues.

Addiction Support

Racing Welfare employs its own dedicated Addiction Support worker who is part funded by the Injured Jockeys Fund. Advice and guidance can be given in many areas of addiction such as drugs, alcohol, gambling and eating disorders.
