Bestway Cash & Carry Group held its annual charity racing day at Royal Ascot for this year's chosen charity, Barnardo's.

Bestway chairman Sir Anwar Pervez (left) was joined at the Tombola by Martin Neary, chief executive of Barnardo's (centre) and former jockey John Francombe.

The 800 guests took part in an auction of 25 items, including the chance of leasing a racehorse and flying lessons. They raised nearly £30,000 for Barnardo's on the day.

Zameer Choudrey, CEO of Bestway Group, said: "Each year we try to give something back to the community through our charitable foundation."
