Rogers & Norton Charity Golf Day 2008


Cancer care in Norfolk has been given a boost thanks to the efforts of over 100 golfers who took part in a special event in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support. A total of £3,100 was raised at the Rogers & Norton Charity Golf Day held at Bawburgh as part of Macmillan’s ‘World’s Biggest Coffee Morning’ event. “The money will now be used to provide better care and information for the people of Norfolk,” said Helen Chapman, Macmillan’s Fund Raising Manager. “We have a mobile information centre which tours the villages and market towns of Norfolk and last year we gave grants of over £70,000 to cancer sufferers in the county. Our thanks go to Rogers & Norton for their valuable support.”

Added Graham Knights from Rogers & Norton, “Unfortunately almost everyone will know someone who has been affected by cancer and that’s why people responded most generously on the day to support the fantastic work Macmillan continues to do. “We are already planning to run a similar event next year.”
