Races call for business support

Shropshire businesses have been invited to sponsor this year’s Eyton-on-Severn point-to-point races.

The events are scheduled for April 21 and May 5, and as well as steeplechase action, there will be family-friendly activities on offer.

The races – which began in 1909 – bring together racing enthusiasts, families and the wider community for a day of amateur horse racing. And this year, there will also be additional entertainment, children’s activities and improved facilities.

Organisers said tailored sponsorship packages were available to suit businesses of all sizes, from banner displays to exclusive naming rights of races.

The Eyton-on-Severn point-to-point races are one of the longest running amateur horse racing events in Shropshire.
