Horse Play Raises Money for Strangles

Horse Play Raises Money for Strangles

If you're a fan of horses, sunshine and having a good time, then an upcoming polo day is sure to be your perfect day out!

Leading equestrian clothing brand, Puffa, who are also partners of the AHT/BHS Breaking the Strangles Hold campaign are holding the day at Sussex Polo Club in August to raise funds and awareness for the campaign.

Everyone is invited to watch the exciting polo action and help support the campaign. The evnt promises to be fun-filled and action-packed, with something for all the family. You can take along your own picnic or treat yourself to food or champagne from on-site caterers.

There will also be a bouncy castle, charity auction, goody bags and opportunities to shop, with Puffa stockists Frogpool Manor promoting the special Strangles polo shirts and their new range of clothing.

AHT Strangles researchers and scientists will be around on the day to answer any questions you might have on the disease or the work we're doing to eradicate it, and members of the fundraising team will be able to help with any other queries you might have!

The Strangles campaign continues to make great progress, with the total raised so far standing at £159,000.

The event takes place on Sunday 10th August at Sussex Polo Club. Gates open at 12pm. Entry is £5 per car, or free if anyone in your party is wearing a Puffa Strangles polo shirt. Dogs are welcome but must be kept on leads. All profits made from the day will go directly to the Breaking the Strangles Hold campaign.

To buy a polo shirt or tickets to the event, visit www.puffa.com
