Wear Green For Jonty Evans

[Ample Prosecco]

Eventing Worldwide FB page has set up a campaign asking people to wear Green XC colours or a hat silk or anything when out and about competing in support of Jonty.

Sorry the link is not working!

That's a lovely idea.

Then post pics of yourself in the colours using #weargreenforjonty

Not sure it achieves much but I do think the outpouring of love and support from the eventing community is helping the family in some small way so I will be wearing green at Stafford BE next week.

Maybe we could donate to a charity that supports those with an acquired brain injury?

Just saw this on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/eventingworldwide/posts/10155781752019366

#WearGreenForJonty

With the huge success of the #WearGreenForJonty campaign we are excited to launch T-Shirt’s and Wristbands for purchase.

All profit from the sale of both these items will go to Jonty’s families chosen charity the Fosters Injured Riders Fund.

£5 from the sale of each T shirt and £2 from each wristband will go to the charity.

That’s a super idea, fingers crossed we get some good news soon. X

Ordered some. Eland Lodge are promoting this initiative so we will wear green at the hunter trials there next weekend.

The family have chosen the David Foster Injured Riders Fund as the one that should receive a percentage from the sales of the merchandise being sold via Bramble Valley.

Here's a link to info on the charity; https://www.eventingireland.com/Abo...-is-the-David-Foster-Injured-Riders-Fund.aspx

Here's a link to the vendors of the merchandise that are making the donation: http://www.bramblevalley.co.uk/

Others are sadly jumping on the commercial bandwagon but are NOT making donations.

Original post was before Eventing Worldwide shared their post. Just realised that I forgot to put the link to the vendors in my second post - nice way of raising funds. for the charity and showing support for Jonty.

Shame to hear others are jumping on the commercial bandwagon
