The Fund has a team of Regional and Centre Liaison who liaise directly with beneficiaries on a support basis and also a team of 20 volunteer visitors who keep in touch with old and isolated beneficiaries offering friendship and company.
The IJF also works closely with racing authorities and other organisations on many initiatives such as funding on course physios and medical services, and research into improved riding protection equipment for jockeys.
In 2009 the Fund opened its first Rehabilitation and Fitness Centre, Oaksey House in Lambourn, and in 2015 opened its second, Jack Berry House in Malton, for northern based jockeys. The trio was completed with the opening of Peter O’Sullevan House in Newmarket in October 2019.
