About
Initiated by Racing NSW, the Trust is for current or former NSW and ACT jockeys and their families who require assistance. This includes but is not limited to:
- Those who have suffered injury
- Those affected by illness
- Those requiring financial aid
The NSW JOCKEYS TRUST can provide financial assistance for current and former NSW and ACT jockeys and their families who are in necessitous circumstances (financial hardship).
The Jockeys Benefit Scheme Trust is a public charitable trust founded by RACING NSW in February 2011 for the purpose of providing funds and other benefits for the relief of the financial difficulties and needs of New South Wales and ACT jockeys (including apprentice jockeys) and their families, especially where such needs arise through the serious injury, illness or death of a jockey.
The activities of the Jockeys Benefit Scheme Trust are conducted under the name NSW JOCKEYS TRUST.
The Trust has been endorsed by the Australian Taxation Office as an income tax exempt charity and a deductible gift recipient.
