Our tee-rrific golf day raised more than £1,300 for Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospice.
TG Lynes suppliers demonstrated their skills at the Marquees Course at the prestigious Woburn Golf Club for the annual Charity Golf Day.
A raffle and a Beat The Pro Challenge was held as part of the event, raising a total of £1,370 for our charity of the year.
Laura Janaway, Marketing Manager at TG Lynes, said: “The Charity Golf Day is always one of the highlights of the fundraising and social calendar.
“A huge thank you to the 49 customers & suppliers who dug deep to help us raise more than we ever have done before.
“The money will make a big difference to Noah’s Ark and the invaluable work the charity does.”
The winning team scored an impressive 88 points collectively and the overall player winner scored an astounding 39 points.
There was extra excitement this year as players were given the chance to win a sparkling new Vauxhall Vivaro Van, worth £30,000, if they scored a hole in one at the 176 yard 17th hole.
There were also prizes up for grabs for an ace on the remaining par threes, including a three-night golf holiday.
Laura added: “Though no-one managed to hit a hole in one and win the van, the competition certainly added an extra buzz around tee shots on the 17th.
“One of our players won a £100 golf voucher as a competition winner but very generously donated the value back to our chosen charity.”
Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospice provides support to babies, children and young people with life-threatening and life-limiting illnesses across London.
Natasha Davis Whitehead, Marketing and Communications Manager at Noah’s Ark, said: “We’re thrilled to be TG Lynes’ charity partner and thank everyone for taking part in this wonderful golf day at one of England’s most prestigious courses.
“Support from companies such as TG Lynes makes a very significant difference to the offering we can provide, particularly in the wake of the pandemic which has stretched the resources of all charities.”
We are also planning a gala dinner and a charity football match against Brith Services, as well as a number of internal events throughout the year to raise funds for Noah’s Ark.
