Mark Johnston Appointed Trustee To The Alborada Trust

Mark Johnston was appointed as a new trustee of the Alborada Trust, after a trustees' meeting last week.

The Alborada Trust was established in 2001 by philanthropist and distinguished owner/breeder Kirsten Rausing. Since inception the Alborada Trust has supported a broad range of domestic and international charities proving grants to those that evidence a solid track record of impact in their particular fields. It supports a number of global, domestic and local charities raging from medical research, international aid, equine veterinary research, higher education, racing charities and smaller charities operating in East Anglia.

Johnston is the UK's winning-most trainer and he and his son Charlie train for Rausing from their base in North Yorkshire. Johnston's racing and veterinary expertise will complement the existing trustees skills matrix. Johnston replaces Newmarket-based bloodstock agent Tom Goff, who resigned

after 12 years of invaluable service.
