THE Hampshire Hunt’s point-to-point meeting at Hackwood Park on Sunday, March 15 will benefit from sponsorship by insurers NFU Mutual.

The Dummer-based company’s director Sally Drummond said: “As an insurer with a proud history of supporting those who live and work in the countryside, we are happy to provide sponsorship for the Hackwood Park meeting on 15 March.

“It is close to our office and is an ideal arena for us to demonstrate what we have to offer.”

Point-to-point chairman Charlie Corbett said: “We are delighted to welcome NFU Mutual as our partner at Hackwood. NFU Mutual is a business steeped in the countryside, and point-to-point racing is a true country sport, so we are a good match.”
