The Brightwell is very grateful to be the nominated charity for Wain Homes Severn Valley Ltd for 2024.
On Friday 19 July, the Wain team delivered their Annual Charity Golf Day in the beautiful surroundings of The Kendleshire Golf Club in Westerleigh, South Gloucestershire.
On the day, after weeks of dull chilly weather, the sun came out and it was the hottest day of the year so far!
The organisational skills of the entire Wain team along with Pat Murphy, MD at The Kendleshire and his fantastic catering and bar staff ensured that the day was a huge success.
The players arrived bright and early ready for the day ahead the first tee off was at 8.30am. There was 24 teams playing, in total 95 players and 6 ‘groundcrew’!
The Wain team did a fantastic job ensuring that all the players were kept hydrated on the golf course and showed some excellent driving skills with their “drinks buggy”! They also kept all the events of the days running smoothly and ensured all their guests were well looked after. The teams who all donated to take part in the tournament were made up of Wain Homes staff, Contractors and Suppliers.
The players returned to the Clubhouse and enjoyed a few drinks in the shade followed by a delicious BBQ and buffet.
Carl Haley, MD of Wain Homes Severn Valley gave out a variety of awards and prizes, with the usual jokes and banter from those winners and especially from those who thought that they should have won. It was a great atmosphere!
The Brightwell Team was headed up by Victoria, Fundraising Manager, and she was supported throughout the day by CEO Doro, Corporate and Events fundraiser Surabhi and Fundraising Trustee Caz.
Not only was this a major fundraising event, but it was really great to be able to introduce new contacts to the The Brightwell, explain about the work we do and what conditions we support.
As well as this being a truly enjoyable day, an opportunity to build awareness amongst potential corporate supporters, we will also benefit from an incredible donation of £11,000!
On behalf of all at The Brightwell, we would like to say a massive thank you to everyone from the Wain Homes Team for your incredible hard work and this outstanding donation!
