A £250 cheque has been handed to charity following an annual
golf day staged by Focus Consultants.
The company, which specialises in funding and economic
development, project management, chartered surveying and energy, staged the
event at Belton Park Golf Club in Grantham.
Players donated £250 in the raffle, and the proceeds were presented
by Focus Partner Trevor Newton to Jamie Davenport from Macmillan Cancer Support
to help fund Macmillan nurses.
Trevor, who is based in the Boston office of Focus,
organised the event along with Associate Craig Gould, who is based at the
company’s Nottingham headquarters.
The event, which has become an annual date on the Focus Consultants’
calendar, attracted players from across the East Midlands. Twenty seven clients,
associates and staff took part in the charity day.
Trevor said: “It was great to see so many clients at our
charity golf day, and I am very pleased that we have been able to support the
very valuable work carried out by Macmillan nurses with our donation to
charity.”

Macmillan nurse for an hour, helping patients and their families receive
essential medical, practical and emotional support that prevents people feeling
like they’re facing cancer alone.”
