WellChild, which has the Duke of Sussex as its patron, is delighted to be in partnership with The Jockey Club for The Festival™ for the second year running. WellChild Chief Executive Colin Dyer said: “We are delighted to be working with The Jockey Club again this year as Official Charity Partner of the Cheltenham Festival 2022. We would like to thank The Jockey Club and everyone involved with The Festival™ for the energy, enthusiasm and hard work they have put into including WellChild in this year’s event and supporting our work with seriously ill children and their families. “In fact, we would like to thank the entire racing community – from owners and jockeys through to racing fans everywhere, for the huge boost they are giving to families with complex needs children. Times have been very tough this year for the families we support and those difficult days look set to continue. Thanks to you we can offer hope and practical help to them as they carry on the struggle to support the children they love.” Last year’s partnership between The Jockey Club and WellChild proved an amazing success with more than £200,000 raised for the charity’s work with seriously ill children and their families in the UK.
