Hole in one for Children’s Hospice South West
Mainstone Golf Society in Plymouth held a fundraising event in support of Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW).
The group held a golf day at Boringdon Park Golf Club which rasied £3,650 for the charity.
Over 100 individuals took part, all completing 18 holes of the highly regarded course at Boringdon with lots of healthy competition between those taking part.
The society is winding down its activity, which is proving beneficial for the charity as they have generously donated all remaining funds to CHSW.
CHSW has three hospices across the South West, including Little Bridge House in Devon, Charlton Farm in North Somerset and Little Harbour in St Austell and support more than 500 babies, children and young people.
Annabel Roberts, Area Fundraiser for CHSW, said: “Thank you so much to all the members of the Mainstone Golf Society for this wonderful donation. Despite the society quietening down, the Sports and Social Club still remains very active and welcoming!
It costs around £4 million a year to run Little Harbour, Mainstone’s local children’s hospice in St Austell, so every penny of this donation is incredibly appreciated!
