South Midlands region raises vital funds for local charity

05 October 2022

A charity which supports people diagnosed with terminal cancers has received vital funding from South Midlands region.

Myton Hospices has received a cheque for £5,250 from South Midlands region, who organised a charity golf day which took place at the Forest of Arden.

The day involved 26 teams made up of 104 players and was sponsored by S&R Doocey Group, McAuliffe Group and Ashlane.

Commenting on the funding, Yasmin Warburton Corporate Fundraiser at The Myton Hospices in Coventry and Warwickshire said: “We are very grateful to Persimmon Homes for including us in their fundraising efforts. These funds will enable us to continue the work we do in helping people with end of life care and providing support to their families.

Paul Coles, Technical Director at Persimmon Homes and organiser of the event commented: “It was great to see our staff and our suppliers coming together for what was an enjoyable day but more importantly raising funds to support the work of Myton Hospices. They do an incredible job in providing compassionate end of life care throughout Warwickshire and I’m pleased we have been able to play our part in supporting this charity.

The feedback on the event has been excellent and we are therefore looking to make this an annual event and raise even more funds for other local charities.”
