What do you offer carers?
Carers will receive free admission to the racecourse when accompanying a paying disabled guest.
Carer tickets can be obtained from the racecourse entrances on the fixture day when proof of disability is provided (e.g. a Blue Badge (with accompanying photo ID), Disability Living Allowance, Personal Independence Payment or signed letter from GP (with accompanying photo ID).)
Please email
mail@ludlowracecourse.co.uk at least 24 hours in advance with your name and details of the fixture you wish to attend to arrange these tickets. Subject to availability.
Can I take photographs?
You may use mobile devices and point-and-shoot or compact cameras to caputre images for your own private and domestic use (but you shall not use professional level photography or filming equipment). The following rules apply:
– Photographs to be taken only in areas to which you have been granted access by the racecourse managing excutive.
-Photography on the racing surface and of/within integrity and equine areas is strictly forbidden; Weighing Room, Pre-Parade, Parade Ring (except when a presentation is taking place), Saddling Boxes, Veterinary Facility or any other area specified by the Managing Excutive.
-Flash photography is strictly forbidden.
– You must not allow a third party to use such images for any commercial purpose and will notify the operator immediately if you become aware of any unauthorised use of those images.
You cannot take images for commercial purposes without prior permission from the racecourse and provision of press accreditation. Permission in some instances may be possible for amateur photographers with high quality equipment, by visiting the racecourse office and signing the required document to ensure you comply with the racecourse terms and conditions.
Can I smoke and where?
Smoking is permitted in the allocated smoking rings across the racecourse. Smoking is not permitted in the grandstands.
Where is the best place to stay overnight?
We would recommend The Clive, Ludlow. It is just half a mile from the racecourse. Here is their website –
