Chamber Golf Day Raises Record Amount For Local Charity

This year's Golf Day was a roaring success, and we would like to thank The Royal Eastbourne Golf Club for accommodating us and for all their help and hospitality.

Special thanks are also due to Jill Benjafield, Membership and Events Manager at the Chamber. Jill has worked tirelessly for months to promote and put the event together: organising teams, sponsors, and all the details that go into making the event a success.

Golf Day took place on 17th May and was attended by 19 teams- one for each hole and one to prop up the bar!

The event was sponsored by Group 1 Hailsham BMW & MINI and there was a hole-in-one competition to win a brand new BMW, sponsored by Mango Insurance and FJN Growth Solutions. Sadly, nobody managed the hole-in-one, but we’re grateful to Mango, FJN and Group 1 for their kind support.

On the day, the sun was out and a combination of competition and fun propelled the players for a full 18 holes.  

The good and the great (and, perhaps, not-so-great when it comes to golfing) of Eastbourne Chamber were out in full-swing for an enjoyable day, which raised an amazing £9015.05 for Children with Cancer Fund.

The top five prize winners were….

First place: Mango Insurance

Second-place, a chamber team: John and Connor from 4Golf, Ashley Chapman from PRG, and Dan Auer from Luxscapes

Third-place: Orange Beach Bars, Harvey’s Brewery, and Paul Hetherington of Vistage

Fourth-place, a chamber team: Harley Discala From Newman, Marcelo de Freitas  from Tricres, Ben Hanny TQ Design and Build, Kiel McHugh from KM Plumbsafe

Fifth-place: Colbran and Wingrove
