Golf competition helps raise more funds for charity
WELLS Golf Club held its Charity Day Golf Competition and Social Evening on behalf of Orchard Vale Trust on Saturday, July 29.
The Trust is a local charity based near Wookey that supports adults with learning difficulties across Somerset either within residential settings or by additional daily support at their day service or in the community.

The golf club received excellent support for this charity from local traders and businesses as well as through its own membership to provide sponsorship and donations. This helped raise funds on the day through a raffle, auction, mulligans, challenging the pro shop on the 17th tee and via the cake and drinks supplied by Orchard Vale Trust service users and staff. In total this year the golf club has now raised £8,500 towards providing specialist equipment for the Trust.
The Town Crier, Len Sweales, got the proceedings under way, with the best two scores from teams of four players counting in the battle for top prizes. The winners on the day were Steve Jones, Martyn Pugh, Mark Edgell and Trevor Jones.
The best mixed team were Jackie Cohen, Mark Lewer, Paul Lewer and Buster Lewer, with Sienna Elliott dominating both of the Ladies ‘Nearest the Pin’ competitions, whilst Liam O’Gorman and Andy Williams triumphed in the Men’s section.
