Orchardleigh Golf Club has raised the sum of £8,118.49 for their nominated charity, Dorothy House, and they have presented a cheque to Steph Cox from the hospice, at the clubhouse.
The funds have been raised throughout the year by putting on various golfing events, quiz nights and raffles together with donations. The Ladies section raised £3,000 and the remaining £5,118.49 was raised by the Men and Senior sections.
The Ladies Section held their annual Christmas lunch on Tuesday 12th December at the clubhouse attended by around 40 members and guests. The ladies started with some fun games and quizzes followed by a short but very amusing show put on by fellow members Molly Carey, Sheila Goodbody and Lin Handley. To end the festivities, the outgoing Lady Captain, Marion Underhill, presented the trophies to the following 2017 prize winners:
