Charity golf day raises funds for local cancer charity
An annual golfing day, organised by accountants and business advisors Whitley Stimpson, has raised £1,000 for an Oxfordshire charity providing cancer support and therapy.
Whitley Stimpson, which has offices in Banbury, Bicester, High Wycombe and Witney raised the money for The Hummingbird Centre at its annual golf day held last Thursday at Frilford Heath Golf Club.
The charity based near Bicester provides free of charge support to cancer patients and their supporting network including a variety of treatments.
The event was attended by Paul Harris, Trustee of The Hummingbird Centre who was presented with a cheque for £1,000 made up from money raised on the day.
Ian Parker, director at Whitley Stimpson said: “Our golfing day was a great success as always. The Hummingbird Centre is a truly remarkable charity that does so much to support cancer patients locally. We were thrilled to raise such a significant sum on the day to help support and develop the Centre’s fantastic work in the future.”For more information about The Hummingbird Centre visit http://thehummingbirdcentre.org.uk
