A number of golfers from the north of England will soon take part in an event being run at a Catterick golf course in aid of Help for Heroes.<\/p>\n
Catterick Golf Club is hosting a charity day on September 6th and all the proceeds will go to the military cause, reports the Northern Echo.<\/p>\n
John Ross, chairman of the golf club, said there were no doubts that Help for Heroes was the right charity to support through this event.<\/p>\n
"Lying at the heart of the garrison, it is not surprising that there are quite a few retired and serving military personnel among our members," he explained.<\/p>\n
A similar charity day was held by the club last year and it raised almost £12,000, with that amount being donated to the Herriot Hospice Care in Northallerton.<\/p>\n
There was also a special captain's event put on by the club in the recent past and that raised £5,000 for Help for Heroes.
