THE annual Cober Valley Rotary Club's charity golf day was held at West Cornwall Golf Club.

This year the chosen charity was The Cove, a specialised pastoral amenity – the only one of its kind in Cornwall - which is being built at Treliske Hospital for cancer patients and their families.

Macmillan is spearheading the fundraising for this project and is supported in some measure by all Cornwall's Rotary Clubs. For this event the Cober Valley Helston Club's efforts are being supported by the Santander Bank.

All the tees were sponsored by local businesses and the golf was fully subscribed with 18 teams participating in what has become one of Cornwall’s favourite golfing charity events.

The event was keenly fought with some close scores but the winners were the team from RAF St Mawgan, with a team from Falmouth Golf Club being narrowly beaten into second place.

Additional prizes were awarded for nearest the pin and ‘twos’ and a game of Irish bingo rounded off a very enjoyable day. President Rachael Curnow thanked all the participants, Santander and all the other sponsors for their support, helping to bring The Cove project to life.
