With her blonde hair tied back into a sensible ponytail and natural make-up look, Sophie opted for a dash of colour with a blue eyeshadow and bold black eyeliner for the day out.

After meeting with winners of the Grand National she then joined children taking part in a crafts session.

The mother-of-two, who is also Patron of the NSPCC, then visited the charity’s offices where she wished a happy birthday to Jenny, who has spent over sixty years fundraising for the charity.

Her Royal Highness also heard more about InCtrl, the NSPCC’s programme which helps keep children safe online.
