Ed Chamberlin, George Baker and Chloe Fairley are to become Trustees of The Injured Jockeys Fund.
The trio will start their roles at an important time for the Injured Jockeys Fund with Peter O'Sullivan House, the IJF’s third rehabilitation and respite centre, set to open in autumn 2019.
Chamberlin, a regular columnist for Sporting Life, is the lead presenter for ITV Racing having previously worked for Sky Sports as the host of Super Sunday and Monday Night Football.
In 2009, Chamberlin fought a battle with stomach cancer and has spoken of his pleasure at the opportunity to assist the Injured Jockeys Fund.
He said: "There isn't a day goes by when I don't think back to my illness and remind myself just how fortunate I am.
"I am therefore honoured to become an IJF Trustee and hope I can be of help in assisting those who find themselves in unfortunate circumstances.”
Baker was a leading jockey on the Flat and steered Harbour Law to victory in the 2016 St Leger.
He is now agent to Williams Buick and James Doyle having been forced to retire from race riding following a serious fall at St Moritz in February 2017 which resulted in him suffering a serious head injury.
Throughout his lengthy rehabilitation, The Injured Jockeys proved an invaluable help to Baker who is now keen to help the cause in the future.
Baker said: “The Injured Jockeys Fund was a massive help to me when I was recovering from my injury, so I was delighted to be asked to be a Trustee.
"I’m looking forward to working with them and doing what I can to help.”
Fairley has also been given the honour of the becoming a Trustee and continues a family connection with the charity by following in the footsteps of her father, John Fairley, who worked tirelessly on behalf of the cause when occupying the same role his daughter will now take on.
Indeed, he was instrumental in the acquisition of land for Jack Berry House and his daughter, a practising barrister specialising in Regulatory and Criminal Law, is looking forward to continuing his good work.
She added: "Racing has been part of my life for as long as I can remember and I have always had immense admiration for the work of the IJF.
"It was a privilege to be asked to become a Trustee and I hope that my experience in the work place will be beneficial following in the footsteps of my father.”
