Devon Air Ambulance is back in the saddle to host return of their popular charity Race Day at Exeter Racecourse. 

Local businesses and racing enthusiasts are champing at the bit to secure places at the Devon Air Ambulance Race Day in November.  

Devon Air Ambulance Race Day returns to Exeter Racecourse this year for the first time since 2018. The charity fundraiser is hosted by and organised in support of Devon Air Ambulance and promises to be a great occasion to enjoy with clients and colleagues, all in support of a local lifesaving charity. 

The day-long charity fundraiser invites supporters to sponsor a race or sponsor a Clydesdale horse for the charity race in support of Devon Air Ambulance. The Premier Hospitality admission ticket includes access to the private hospitality box opposite the finish line, the official race card, a delicious two-course meal, drink on arrival, support from the hospitality team and a tipster talk. 

At £900 per table of 10, or £90 per seat, businesses won’t want to look a gift horse in the mouth, and with just six tables available places are likely to be booked up quickly.  

But there’s also an opportunity for sponsorship with two races available to sponsor at £1,000 per race, while a sponsor’s corporate logo will feature in the programme and on a slide on the big TV screen. The much-loved Clydedales sponsorship will be £500 per horse. 

Tracy Owen, Corporate Engagement Manager at Devon Air Ambulance, is looking forward to welcoming business supporters back into the hospitality box: 

‘It’s been a while since we last enjoyed the company of our Devon business supporters on a Race Day, and we’re excited about what is guaranteed to be a fantastic day out for corporate supporters, their clients and colleagues, as well as fans of the popular Clydesdale race or racing enthusiasts in general, who are keen to support a local charity. ‘ 

‘We’re very grateful to Exeter Racecourse and to the Exeter Jockey Club for making this popular event possible once more. We’re confident that seats and tables will go quickly so recommend getting off the start line quickly to secure a place at the table!’ 

Supporters can sponsor a race, or sponsor a Clydesdale horse for the charity race, or book a Premier Hospitality admission ticket by contacting Tracy on 07494 292384 or t.owen@daat.org
