Racing Welfare’s Director of Welfare, Simone Sear, has today been named as a finalist for this year’s Godolphin Rory MacDonald Award. The accolade is part of the Stud and Stable Staff Awards and is one of six categories, encompassing a total of £120,000 in prize money.
The Rory MacDonald Award recognises any individual connected directly or indirectly within horseracing, including auxiliary and administrative staff who has made an outstanding contribution to either the racehorses or to the lives of those working within the industry, or on racing’s behalf, in local communities showcasing the social responsibility of our sport, for either equine, humans or both.
All of the award finalists will now go through to a face-to-face interview stage on Monday 24th February, following which the winners will be announced at a glittering ceremony in London.
