Adorable Unicorn Toys on Sale to Support 2021 Paralympic Bid!

Winnie the Unicorn Large

Di Green, a Tokyo Paralympic dressage hopeful and member of the World Class Podium Potential Programme, has unveiled her fundraising campaign for 2021 and it’s safe to say it’s utterly adorable!

Introducing Winnie the Unicorn!, a soft and cuddly mascot unicorn being sold to help fund Di’s Tokyo 2021 campaign. It costs around £40,000 to campaign two horses for the year, plus 25% of the profits will go to Di’s recently launched Para Equestrian Foundation.

The Winnie the Unicorn range includes cuddly toys, a rucksack, a pyjama case and a supporter’s club. The unicorn toys are inspired by Di’s beloved Gunstone’s Pride (stable name Winnie). She might look like a sensible para dressage horse, but she’s actually a banana-eating undercover unicorn…

Winnie is the miracle horse who has partnered Di on her journey to establish herself as an international para dressage rider after a long break from riding after a head injury. Together, Di and Winnie have won National Para Dressage Championship titles and been Reserve Champions at International events. In 2019 Di was selected onto the World Class Podium Potential Programme and is aiming for the next Paralympic Games. Sadly, an injury sidelined Winnie for 2020 and Di’s other ride Lexi has taken her place for the preparations for Tokyo 2021.

By purchasing a Winnie toy or membership of the Winnie Club, supporters will help Di fund her Tokyo campaign. Di estimates it will cost £40,000 to campaign two horses in 2021. This high cost to train and compete as a para rider is why Di set up the Para Equestrian Foundation in 2020, more detail here.

Here are more details of the adorable cuddly toys which are available to purchase and help support Di’s campaign:
