Community Fundraiser at St Michael’s Hospice, Felicity James, says the hospice is very grateful to those who took part. “A very big thank you to the 76 golfers who attended a very blustery Charity Golf Day,” she said. “A total of £2,895 was raised, including £562 from a game of Heads & Tails where the winning golfer received six bottles of wine donated by Morrisons.
“The Hospice also thank all raffle prize donators; United Business Group, Morrisons, Trattoria Italiana, Café Maroc and Perfections Beauty. Hole sponsors; The Park Lane Group, Wilmoths and Glen Wells. The volunteers who worked so hard on the day, the marvellous staff at Cooden Beach Golf Course for their help in the lead up to the event and on the day and most importantly, to the wonderful golfers for supporting this event so generously.”
