A seniors’ golf competition in Scarborough has raised hundreds of pounds for hospice care.
The event, held at South Cliff Golf Club, brought in £400 for Saint Catherine’s Hospice.
Seventy-two players took part in the annual Seniors Open Competition, with participants travelling from Guisborough, Chesterfield, York and Rotherham to take part.
Stuart Coney, seniors’ captain, said: "It was an extremely successful day, with people already asking to book for next year."
The winning team was from Saltburn, and the event included a sweepstake in support of the hospice.
Ron Lee, seniors’ vice-captain, explained that Saint Catherine’s was chosen as the beneficiary because a club member’s wife had received care there.
Mr Coney said: "It’s great to be able to support something local."
Susan Stephenson, fundraising operations coordinator at Saint Catherine’s, added: "We would like to thank Stuart, Ron and all the players on the day for their amazing support and generosity."
