A charity golf day has helped raise more than £2,000 for soldiers injured while serving their country.<\/p>\n
The event – organized by Graham Salway – took place at Oake Manor Golf Club and generated £2,138 for the Help for Heroes charity, the Somerset County Gazette reports.<\/p>\n
Winners of the tournament were Rose Jarvis, Kathy Salway and Jane Clist, who each bagged 82 points.<\/p>\n
The newspaper observed there was a good turnout at the spectacle by members and non-members alike.<\/p>\n
Roger King, John Greenslade Jnr and Dave Jewell finished in joint second, while James Biggs, Francis Barnsley and Tom Warren came in third place.<\/p>\n
The fundraiser was held on Friday August 27th.<\/p>\n
It was recently revealed staff at the Hog's Head in Cheltenham have agreed to give up a night's wages to raise cash for Help for Heroes.<\/p>\n
It is expected proceeds from this act alone will see £250 collected for the cause.<\/p>\n
