Generous members of Beverley & East Riding Golf Club helped last year’s Captain Jeff Worrall raise more than £3,000 for local charities.
Mr Worrall said he was delighted to present cheques for £2,000 to Becky Read representing MacMillan Nurses and £1,080 to Jan Stainforth of Beverley Community Lift.
Beverley and East Riding golf club is set to receive over £26,000 to restore the Westwood’s iconic 200 year old Anti Mill, from a pot of cash paid by developers to support recreation and leisure projects.
Last March, East Riding ward Councillor, Denis Healy, encouraged local community clubs to come forward to bid for the money, known as “Commuted Sums,” which is earmarked for leisure and recreation projects.
Beverley & East Riding Golf Club is launching a major drive to get local people swinging into golf.
The Westwood-based club is staging an Open Day on Sunday, July 9, where everyone is welcome and people can come and try the game for themselves.

This match was arranged at very short notice so it was left to skipper Jeff Worrall to cobble together a make-shift team of Beverley Veterans.
