Golf day raises over £50k for Bowel Cancer research

Wed, 17 Aug 2022

An annual Golf Day in aid of the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK raised a staggering £50,444.

The event, which again took place at Comis Hotel and Golf Resort, was launched in 2011.

All the proceeds are spent on dedicated bowel cancer research by Cancer Research UK.

Lars Ugland, chairman of the team which organised the Golf Day, said: “We are very grateful for the support from PokerStars who have now sponsored the event for seven years, while backing from other companies and individuals has again been magnificent.”   

“The credit for so much that has been achieved goes to Stephanie who has made people aware of the silent killer that bowel cancer is,” added Mr Ugland, who with his wife Geraldine, were close friends of Bobby Moore and have continued the relationship with Stephanie Moore.

“I’m proud and grateful to all those involved in this great event, particularly the organising team and the dedication involved in once again making it such a tremendous success raising our largest total to date.”
