The Ladies section of Orchardleigh Golf Club presented a cheque for £928 to Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance at the clubhouse on Thursday, 25th November.

Sonia Probert, who has been Lady Captain at the club since the beginning of 2020, has organised many events and competitions throughout her captaincy, raising a substantial amount for the charity.

A further sum of £1,295 was sent to Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance in May 2021 to cover funds raised in 2020. Ken Hutton, the representative from Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance who is a member at Orchardleigh, said the charity is very grateful for the sums raised on their behalf. It has been a difficult two years with many events having to be cancelled due to the pandemic, so to raise these amounts has been a great achievement.
