THE annual Ladies Charity Day open at Lymm Golf Club raised an incredible £3,358 for the Lady Captain’s chosen charity – the Children’s Adventure Farm Trust (CAFT).
A total of 120 women entered the event, representing golf clubs from all over the North West and prizes were awarded to the first three teams, nearest the pins and longest drives.
There was also the opportunity to do a spot of shopping at the various stalls – home baked cakes and homemade chutneys and jams made by Lymm Golf Club members, plant stall, tombola, raffle, nearly new clothes, pre loved jewellery, crafts and beauty products.
CAFT is a local charity which provides holidays, day trips and Christmas parties to children who, for a variety of reasons, would never be given the opportunities taken for granted by their peers.
Children who are terminally ill, children with severe disabilities and sensory impairments and also their siblings who care for them, children from deprived areas and children who are living with abuse and crime. The money raised will help to give life-changing experiences to children who have sadly known so much pain, fear and sadness.
A great day was enjoyed by all the players and the winners of the competition were the team from Davyhulme – but the real winners were the children, their parents and their carers.
