MORE than £7000 was raised in the last year for charity by Evesham Vale Golf Club.
Last year's lady captain Pauline Laight handed over a cheque for £7021.86 to Charlie Homer, fundraiser at St Richard's Hospice.
The hospice was the captain's chosen charity for the year with a number of charity events taking place throughout the year including open competitions, social events and filling change boxes.
This amount would provide 17 days care at the In-Patient Unit.
Mr Homer gave a short description of the nursing care, facilities and support provided to patients and families for end of life or respite care at the hospice and in the community; he also described the wonderful atmosphere experienced by patients, visitors and volunteers there and invited all to visit and find out more.
