Torquil Clark Raises Money for Golf Captain’s Charity Day
July 24th, 2008
On 17th July 2008, golfers from across the Midlands dusted off their golf clubs to take part in the Worfield Golf Club Captain’s Charity Golf Day. This year’s event, sponsored by Torquil Clark for the second year in a row, raised over £3,000 for the Alzheimer’s Association and Hope House Children’s Hospices. Additional money was raised through entry fees and a charity auction, which took place during the presentation evening.
The Captain’s Charity Day is an annual event that has raised thousands of pounds for charities since it was launched 12 years ago. Over 120 keen golfers and local businessmen took part this year.
Rob Walton, Captain of Worfield Golf Club said: “Hosting a golf event is a great way to raise money for charity. Many local businesses from across the region showed their support by entering teams into the contest, using it as an opportunity to entertain corporate guests. We will have raised another fantastic sum for charity this year, and based on such strong support for the day, look forward to hosting the event next year.”
Torquil Clark’s Managing Director, John Chapman, added: “Charity events such as the Captain’s Golf Day need backing through sponsorship and we were pleased to be able to help Worfield Golf Club once again. The fact that it had been a dry day was an added bonus for all the golfers who enjoyed a fantastic day out on the course, which was up to its usual high standards. We look forward to being able to hand over a substantial cheque to both the Alzheimer’s Association and Hope House Children’s Hospices.”
