A complete set of six stamps celebrating Trevor Hemmings’ racing legacy, from Grand National victories to Cheltenham and Olympic successes.

Clare Balding, Broadcaster

Trevor loved his horses. That shone through more than anything in the way he cared for them after they retired. Winning the Grand National was always a dream for him and to do it with three different horses was the ultimate achievement. He would always wear his cloth cap even under a top hat at Royal Ascot and he never forgot his roots as a working-class lad from Lancashire. He gave back so much to the community and to families who needed help and he had the kindest heart. Trevor was also an extraordinary businessman, a believer in the integrity of sporting competition, and an absolute diamond.
