Group Financial Director Sue Howell’s idea has helped raise over £100,000 for charities!
The second Richard Layton Charity Raceday at Hereford Racecourse was a huge success – 350 guests. Four incredible charities. Over £55,000 raised – bringing the Herefordshire community together to support mental health awareness and vital emergency services.
Following the success of the inaugural event in 2024, this April’s Raceday raised funds for:
• We Are Farming Minds
• Midlands Air Ambulance Charity
• Injured Jockeys Fund
• Herefordshire Mind
Created in memory of Richard Layton, the event continues to spark important conversations around mental health in the farming community while raising vital funds for deserving causes.
A huge thank you to everyone who donated prizes, sponsored tables, bought raffle tickets, and supported the day. The generosity shown across the community was extraordinary.
As organiser Sue Howell said: “We could not have asked for more.” 👏
