Virtual Yorkshire Open Day

Volunteer today for racing charities!

Charities working across the sport are frequently in need of valuable support from volunteers – on an ongoing basis or just to support a particular event.

Volunteering is a great way to help the causes you support, and can even boost your CV and help you make new friendships.

Opportunities to volunteer with racing industry charities will be found through Careers in Racing and the Sport and Recreation Alliance.

A selection of charities that rely on volunteers:

Racing Welfare
Palace House
Racehorse Sanctuary & Rehoming Centre
The Racehorse Rescue Centre
The British Thoroughbred Rehoming Centre
Greatwood
and more…

Example roles include administrative or specialist business support, fundraising-specific tasks, or hands-on with horses.
