Yorkshire’s Brain Tumour Charity (YBTC) is thrilled to have been chosen as one of the charities being supported by the “Wear a Hat Raceday” on Tuesday 22nd March at Wetherby Racecourse.
The day will raise funds for YBTC, a Leeds-based charity which funds research and support for patients and families throughout the region, and Brain Tumour Research, a UK-wide medical research charity.
The racecourse chose the “Wear a Hat” theme in support of the hat-themed campaigns both charities run throughout Brain Tumour Awareness Month in March – YBTC’s “Flat Cap Friday” and Brain Tumour Research’s “Wear a Hat Day”.
Race attendees are encouraged to wear a hat to the races, whether that’s a fascinator, a flat cap, a beanie or a top hat, with the chance to win spot prizes on the day. There’ll also be a raffle with fantastic prizes to raise extra funds for the charities.
Michelle Campbell, Sales & Marketing Manager at Wetherby Racecourse, said: “We started supporting Brain Tumour Research’s Wear A Hat Day in 2012 in collaboration with a group of Yorkshire-based Milliners that we had previously worked with for Ladies’ Day. 10 years later we are delighted to continue to support the two charities during Brain Tumour Awareness Month, and are looking forward to working with volunteers from YBTC and Brain Tumour Research.”
Jen Aspinall, YBTC said: “We are very grateful to be asked to involved in Wetherby Racecourse’s Wear a Hat Day this year. Our volunteers are all excited to get involved, to raise awareness and funds to support our vital work in funding research and providing practical, emotional and financial support to anyone affected by a brain tumour diagnosis in our region. Thank you so much to Michelle and her team, for the opportunity and for your ongoing support!”
Wetherby Racecourse has been a longtime supporter of Will’s Way, a charity fund founded in 2017 to support paediatric and adult patients, which merged with YBTC in August 2020.
Lisa Barker, founder of Will’s Way, said: “Will’s Way had been involved with the Wetherby race days for many years and hoped this would continue after we merged with YBTC in 2020. Of course, in 2021 the pandemic scuppered those plans but we are delighted that YBTC is part of the event for 2022.”
The “Wear a Hat Raceday” on 22nd March will be an exciting afternoon of jump racing featuring a 6-race card, with the first race starting at 2pm. The funds raised will go towards funding vital brain tumour research and support.
