Over 160 golfers in Esher took part in a charity golf day earlier this month, raising £1,300 for Princess Alice Hospice.

The event was held on September 9 from 10.30am until 3.30 pm at Sandown Park Golf Centre.

Shop staff and volunteers pitched in with sourcing tombola and raffle prizes, selling tickets and helping out on the day.

The event organiser David Smith said: “It was perfect, a great family day was what we were aiming for and it came together thanks to the efforts of so many kind people.

“The golf centre offered the venue free. We had great prize donations including wine from William Reed of Crawley, and Surrey Hills Community Radio helped with publicity.”

Hospice shop manager Val Woodward said: “This was all down to David – it was a fantastic day and we’re very grateful.”

Princess Alice Hospice provide end of life care to tens of thousands of people across parts of Surrey and South West London.

74 percent of the hospice’s inspire comes from fundraising, retail, donations and legacies.
