Golfers raise over £4500 for Cancer Research UK

30 October, 2015

The annual event took place at the Warwickshire Golf and Country Club with the company originally ‘on target’ to raise £3000. However, the 16 teams that took part have exceeded this goal by over £1000, with the current total standing at £4500.

Colin Mander, regional director for Gardner Denver, said: “The event saw many of our key distributors joined by suppliers and Gardner Denver internal teams for a great day’s golfing that even included a hole in one from DFA commercial director, Ryan Fuller.

“It was of course an opportunity to talk to our customers about some of the new products that we plan to introduce in 2016. But more importantly, the event was about raising as much money as possible for a very worthwhile charity.”

Mander added: “I’d like to thank each of the 64 golfers who gave up their time to support this event and who helped us raise money for this great cause. In one day, we have raised enough money to part-fund clinical trials across the West Midlands area, just one small thing that will hopefully make a difference in the fight against cancer.”
