What We Do
Since 1964 the Injured Jockeys
Fund has provided medical, financial and pastoral care,
to jockeys (their spouses, or dependants) who have suffered
through injury. There is no time or financial limit to this
care which is there for as long as is necessary. Fortunately
not all cases are of the severest nature, however in some
instances injuries have been catastrophic, changing a jockeys
life forever.
The Fund responds quickly to all cases where help is required. Last year 2009, we provided help to over 500 injured jockeys of which 35 were new cases. Individual circumstances tend to be quite different and so require varying levels and types of support, but whatever the need, the IJF will always ensure the closest of care and attention.
