The Pulman Golf Day at Chester Le Street Golf Club in Durham has raised more than £10,000 for a children’s charity and a local hospital.
The charity event, organised by Pulman Volkswagen in Durham, saw 80 golfers tee off to raise money for Newcastle’s Freeman Hospital and the NSPCC.
Sponsors, including Adidas, who supplied the golf balls and shirts, Stone Technical Services and Whitfield Building Services, all contributed to the fundraising success.
Signed sporting memorabilia attracted high bids during the evening auction which included a Kevin Pietersen bat, Shay Given shirt and Sir Garfield Sobers bat.
Pulman Volkswagen brand manager Michael Lines was delighted with the success of the event.
Michael said: “We would like to thank all the golfers and sponsors for making this year’s event such a phenomenal success.
“It was a great day enjoyed by everyone involved and it has set a tough precedent for next year’s event.”
The winning player from team Eos, David Towler from Hadston, Northumberland who works for Mount Grace Insurance, was awarded a trophy, a Callaway golf bag plus a VIP Newcastle United match experience in the director’s box at St. James’ Park.
