Guests are invited to join a hospice for a glamorous day at the polo to raise funds for its care to patients and loved ones.
St Richard’s Hospice will host A Day at the Polo on Sunday, September 4 at the Beaufort Polo Club, in Westonbirt, Gloucestershire.
Tricia Cavell, Fundraising Director of the Worcestershire hospice, said: “This is going to be a fantastic event at the beautiful Beaufort Polo Club.
“Our guests are set for a wonderful day at the polo, with tickets including a range of benefits such as a delicious three-course lunch in an exclusive marquee.
“This event will raise important funds for St Richard’s, helping us continue to provide care to thousands of people across Worcestershire.”
Guests will begin their day with a reception drink and live music on the private lawn area.
There will be a polo demonstration, private bar, three-course lunch in the exclusive-use marquee, followed by a polo match in front of the marquee.
The event runs from 11.30am to 6.30pm. Individual tickets are £110 each, while the cost for a table of 10 is £1,100.
The hospice is also holding a Picnic at the Polo event where spectators can bring a picnic, park their car and watch the match from their parking pitch.
The cost for a car pass is £30 with all proceeds donated to the hospice. Picnic guests can bring their own drinks, or use the club’s bar. This event runs from 12pm to 5.30pm.
A Day at the Polo is sponsored by Eva Capital Management and Three Counties Christmas, and supported by Anja Potze Fine Jewellery.
