Australia's first national not-for-profit dedicated to supporting the lifelong welfare of off-the-track racehorses.

We believe that connected and empowered ownership, supported by equitable access to education, provides the strongest and most sustainable foundation for the lifelong welfare of off-the-track horses.

What makes OTTA different is our community-led approach, shaped by lived experience. We strengthen established networks, connect Australia's off-the-track community, and create opportunities for people to share knowledge, support one another, and have their voices heard. By listening to our community, we help inform advocacy and strengthen lifelong outcomes for off-the-track horses.

Our mission is to foster a connected and empowered off-the-track community by improving access to education, strengthening collaboration, and supporting lifelong welfare outcomes for Thoroughbreds and Standardbreds.

Our Board

Our Board brings together expertise across equine welfare, governance, business, technology, and community leadership. United by a shared commitment to lifelong care for off-the-track racehorses, they provide strategic guidance and oversight as OTTA grows nationally.
