Update on William Fox-Pitt’s Recovery

William Fox-Pitt made good progress with his recovery and was discharged from hospital to continue his rehabilitation at home.

“It is fantastic to be back home; it feels like it has been a long time away from my family,” Fox-Pitt said. “I would like to thank all the doctors in France, from the team at Le Lion d’Angers to those who looked after me in the ICU in Angers. The rehab team in Poole General Hospital have been incredibly thorough.”

He added: “The team at home have been doing an amazing job keeping everything going, but luckily everything is quiet as the horses are all on their end-of-season break. I am looking forward to making a full recovery over the winter.”

The family asked that their privacy continue to be respected while Fox-Pitt recovered.
