Family-run Avon Timber Merchants celebrated its 10th Annual Charity Golf Day at Stoneleigh Deer Park Golf Club, raising £10,000 for local charity Evelyn’s Gift.
Bringing together suppliers and customers for a day of friendly competition and giving back, this year’s milestone event welcomed 26 sponsors and 76 participants. A total of £6,200 was raised, which Avon Timber rounded up to £10,000 on the night to celebrate the tenth anniversary of this charity championship.
Evelyn’s Gift provides essential support to people in crisis across Coventry and Warwickshire – from bereavement assistance to emergency supplies for families fleeing domestic violence. The charity also works to raise awareness of CPR training and the importance of community care.
Steve Lomasney, managing director at Avon Timber said: “As a family run business, giving back whenever we can is something that’s always been important to us. The charity golf day has become a key event in our calendar and something we genuinely look forward to each year. ”
