Oaksey House By far the most ambitious project to date is the construction of OAKSEY HOUSE in Lambourn, named in recognition of our beloved President who has been devoted to the cause of injured jockeys for more than 40 years. It is estimated to cost around £5m and will be sited on the 1.25 acre former training yard Bourne House from where amongst others Remittance Man was trained to win the Queen Mother Champion Chase in 1992. After seemingly endless planning negotiations and much hard work the proposed development was approved. Construction began in Nov 2007 and is scheduled to be completed in Dec 2008. Oaksey House will provide a combination of 12 double and single accommodation units. Some will be fully adapted for disabled occupancy, and all will all be centered round a state-of-the-art, eco friendly resource centre. Chief Executive Jeremy Richardson explained: Given a choice, our beneficiaries would much prefer to live within a racing community where they have friends and family and can mix with the current generation employed in the sport. The resource centre will include communal and recreational areas for residents and paramedical wing to provide physiotherapy, occupational therapy, specialist treatments, counselling and exercise facilities. It is hoped all these facilities will be available to local jockeys and stable and stud workers. Follow Oaksey House "Construction Progress".
