GOLFERS are invited to tee off for the Mayor’s charity golf day.

The annual event will be held on Wednesday, September 25, at Maidenhead Golf Club, in aid of Alexander Devine Children’s Hospice Service.

Teams of four are being called on to support the fundraising event in Shoppenhangers Road, Maidenhead.

The days line-up will include 18 holes of golf Stableford competition, a three-course meal followed by a short speech, presentations and raffle.

Prizes will be awarded to the first and second teams, the highest scoring individual, nearest the pin and longest drive.

Mayor Cllr Catherine Bursnall said: “I am delighted that the annual Mayor’s charity golf day is supporting such a worthy local charity. I do hope that as many people as possible can support the day.

“I am looking forward to seeing them all tee off - may the best team win!”

Alexander Devine Children’s Hospice Service was founded by Windsor residents John and Fiona Devine, who lost their son, Alexander, to cancer.

Their aim is to build a children’s hospice in Berkshire to provide respite care, support for families, an outreach team and specialist palliative care for children with life-limiting conditions.

The day will cost £260 per team and guests are welcome to join the evening meal for £20 per guest.
