The Duke of Sussex has played in a polo match in aid of disadvantaged young people affected by HIV/Aids, a move he said was in honour of his mother. Harry saddled up to take part in the sporting event for his charity Sentebale in Singapore on Saturday 12 August, with money raised used to support the organisation’s clubs and camps programme, which provides intensive psychosocial support to young people living with HIV. He played on the Royal Salute Sentebale team against a Singapore Polo Club team captained by the charity’s ambassador and his long-time friend, Argentinian polo player Nacho Figueras. Both Harry and Figueras scored as the match ended 7-7. For more lifestyle news visit Independent TV: Click here to subscribe to The Independent: About The Independent: Making Change Happen.
