Odds on for LOROS and Leicester Racecourse’s new partnership

News

3 Mar 2015

LOROS is thrilled to have been selected as Leicester Racecourse’s chosen charity of the year for 2015.

Leicester Racecourse, an outstanding venue for conferencing, weddings and much more, has already vowed to support a brand new LOROS fundraiser this year, which is part of a jam-packed calendar of events to mark the Hospice's 30th Anniversary.

Leicester Racecourse will play host to an Ascot Ladies day in aid of LOROS on Thursday 18th June when live screening from Ascot Races will be streamed into the Oadby venue via giant plasma screens. Ladies will be welcomed by a complimentary glass of fizz and will then dine on a fabulous four course lunch before having the chance to browse the stalls or have a little flutter.

Tickets are available from LOROS now at an early bird rate of just £49 per person, or £450 for a table of ten. The early bird offer will expire on May 18th when tickets will then be available for £59 per person or £500 for a table of ten. The ticket price also gains entry to the live horse racing due to take place from 6pm.

Laura Betts, LOROS Fundraiser said: “There has been a demand for this type of event for some years now. The LOROS Ladies Luncheon, which has been running for over 30 years, sells out most years and so we know we have a great deal of female supporters who are looking for events just like this one. We are really looking forward to trying something different and can’t wait to see local ladies glammed up for an afternoon at the races!”

Rob Bracken, Director at The Leicester Racecourse said: "The team at Leicester Racecourse are delighted to be working with LOROS this year. We are extremely proud to be associated with a charity that is celebrating 30 years of caring for our community. We have lots of exciting ideas in the pipeline already and are really looking forward to working together throughout the year”.
