Mallets were at the ready as The Prince’s Trust held their prestigious charity polo day at Chester Racecourse.

Hosted by property guru Sian Astley from BBC2's Your Home Made Perfect, and sponsored by wealth management company Tilney Investments Services Ltd and uber luxury jeweller Boodles, guests were treated to a luxurious Laurent-Perrier champagne reception followed by a delectable three-course meal.

There were 250 guests who settled in for an exhilarating exhibition polo match. The afternoon raised an incredible £40,000 and all funds from the polo match will go directly towards helping young people in the North West region go into employment, education and training.
