Racing to make a difference

On Wednesday 28 October 2026, ten members of the racing community will take part in the Heroes Gallop for Autism In Racing at Nottingham Racecourse.

Each rider is giving their time, committing to the challenge and raising funds to help Autism In Racing continue creating more accessible, welcoming and inclusive opportunities across British racing.

Supporters can donate to an individual rider or contribute to the overall Heroes Gallop campaign. Every donation, no matter the size, helps us continue practical work that makes a real difference.

More than a race

Every stride helps create opportunity

Heroes Gallop brings together people from across racing for one unforgettable challenge. Behind every rider, every donation and every cheer from the rail is a shared ambition to make racing a place where autistic and neurodivergent people feel welcome, understood and included.
