There are four days left to enter the Georgie Campbell Foundation prize draw for items such as lessons with leading riders and membership tickets to the British five-stars, while helping to raise money for a programme set up in memory of the event rider.

British five-star rider Georgie Campbell died in a fall at Bicton Horse Trials on 26 May last year, aged 36. The Georgie Campbell Foundation, set up by a group of people who love and deeply miss Georgie, will support early-stage event riders in establishing and running their businesses through tailored mentorship, training and grants in areas including financial management and attracting and retaining staff, owners and sponsors. The foundation also seeks to help improve safety in eventing.
