Helen Weatherston, Director of Business Development at Barnsley College, said, “I’d like to thank everyone who generously donated towards this initiative. It is heart-warming to witness the Barnsley community coming together to support such a worthy and compassionate cause.”
Vicky Stead, Community Relationships Manager, added: “We’re so thankful to Barnsley College for supporting us once again with their second annual Golf Day. The college has been a wonderful supporter of Barnsley Hospice for many years and has raised over £18,000 for us in total.
“As a charity, we need to raise £3.5 million every year to continue our services. Fundraisers like the Golf Day make a huge difference to the support and care we can provide to those in the local area.
