Ballycastle Golf Club enjoy a 'tee-rific' fundraising year for Air Ambulance NI
Ballycastle Golf Club’s fundraising for Air Ambulance Northern Ireland has been well above par this year!
During their tenure as Captains, Gerard Norwood and Bernie Hegarty selected Air Ambulance NI as their chosen charity.
At the conclusion of their Captain’s Year, Gerard Norwood and Bernie Hegarty were delighted to present a cheque for £5,279.91 to Air Ambulance NI.
The emergency service is tasked on average twice per day and requires £8,200 each day in fundraising. The Air Ambulance operates 365 days a year and can reach anywhere in Northern Ireland in under 25 minutes
A spokesperson for AANI said: “Support from local communities and sports organisations such as this un-fore-gettable initiative is vital to keep the Air Ambulance flying.
"The substantial amount was generated through a variety of fundraising activities held throughout the year, made possible by the enthusiasm and generosity of club members and supporters.”
Ballycastle Golf Club extended its sincere thanks to everyone who contributed to this outstanding achievement.
