Allerthorpe golf club present fundraising cheque

Allerthorpe Park Golf Club’s 2011 captains Peter Turner and Sheila Burton raised more than £2,000 for charity during their captaincy year.

They chose the Humber NHS Foundation Trust Cardiac Rehabilitation Service as their charity.

Members of, and visitors to, the club were asked to make a donation to the charity if their ball went in the lake following their tee shot on the 18th hole.

Donations were also asked for on club competition days that were sponsored, while the ladies’ section held raffles and members were generally reminded throughout the year to dig deep.

As a result the captains presented a cheque for £2,350 to Jayne Fenwick, chairman of Humber NHS Foundation Trust.
