We’re celebrating the fantastic news that we raised an incredible £9,000 at our annual golf day for our charity of the year, Myeloma UK.

Every year our charity golf day proves popular, with 88 golfers taking part at this year’s gathering, hosted by our friends at Morley Hayes.

With the sun shining, our golfers teed off in excellent conditions before sitting down for a well-deserved evening meal.

A raffle and charity auction followed which demonstrated the continued generosity of everyone involved through their donation of prizes and the bids received.

The £9,000 raised through this year’s event will be a significant help to Myeloma UK in their excellent work providing care to cancer sufferers.

Our fundraising total across the past three years now stands at a phenomenal £34,000 for the various charities we nominate.

Bruce McKendrick, Chief Executive Officer of Forest Holidays, said: “As a company we are committed to championing our local communities and are delighted by the support shown by our team, our partners and our guests for our nominated charities over the years.

“Our annual charity golf day, as always, was a great success and we would like to thank everyone again for their overwhelming generosity. We look forward to welcoming you again next year!”
