03/07/2008
2 employees from wantthelook.com are hoping to raise over £1500 for Macmillan Cancer Support. They put their handicap to the test and took part in the 2008 Longest Day Golf Challenge on Tuesday 1st July at Stoneleigh Deer Park Golf Club.
In their bid to complete the cancer care charity’s sponsored golf marathon, backed by golfing star, Nick Dougherty, team members, Oliver Cole Dean Pipitone, Mark Williams and Ray Hung took to the green and played a mammoth four rounds of golf in just one day.
Oliver Cole says: “Playing 72 holes in just one day was a real challenge and by the end of it we were all feeling rather the worse for wear! We’ve had a great day though and knowing that every hole played helped raise more money for such a worthwhile cause really spurred us on. Not being a member of a golf club, we’d like to thank John Reay and his team at Stoneleigh Deer Park Golf Club for his generosity and kindness throughout the day. ”
Macmillan hopes the popular golfing challenge, will raise more than £350,000 to help provide the expert care and emotional support that makes a real difference to people affected by cancer.
