LEADERS IN THE CLUBHOUSE AT GOLF BONANZA
The Bobby Williams/CdlS Fundraising
Charity Golf Day was a swinging
success after a whopping £1,800 was
raised for the charity. The day was organised by Keith and Birgitta Morris from Leader Associates and was held at the Birchwood Golf Club in Swanley, Kent back in September.
“Leader Associates are a specialist Gas Consltants and have been working for my employer L&Q Group for a number of years,” said Tony Williams, dad to Bobby who has CdLS. “They were looking for a
charity linked with the Trust to donate the proceeds of their Golf day and fortunately they were happy to choose CdLS again this year. Even better
news, they have recently confirmed that they will continue to sponsor the CdLS Foundation for future golf events.
“The day was a huge success and great fun. Those who played were either employees of L&Q, contractors, consultants and suppliers who were all very generous with their donations, gifts and raffle prizes.” |
