Prince Harry is to take part in a charity polo match in the US
The Duke of Sussex will take part in an annual polo tournament in Aspen, Colorado, for charity. The event will raise funds and awareness for one of Prince Harry's most beloved organisations, Sentebale, which he co-founded in 2006.
Speaking ahead of the event, the Duke said: "We are delighted to return once again to the stunning grounds of Aspen Valley Polo Club for the annual Sentebale ISPS Handa Polo Cup.
"Sixteen years ago, Prince Seeiso and I founded Sentebale in honour of our mothers' work in HIV, and named after my mum's favourite flower, the 'forget-me-not' in Sesotho, representing our commitment to always remembering and advocating for those in need.
"We are all proud of the support we are able to give the young people of Lesotho and Botswana to feel empowered, healthy, resilient, and able to thrive.
"The funds raised this year will be invested in these communities at a critical time, as inequalities have been exacerbated by the pandemic.
"We are enormously grateful to our partners and supporters here today, especially our long-standing title sponsor, ISPS Handa, for making the day possible."
