CPS Charity Golf Day Raises Over £8,700 for Held In Our Hearts
Published: 05/06/25
Community Pharmacy Scotland’s 11th Annual Charity Golf Day was a swinging success, raising an incredible £8,732 for our 2025 charity partner, Held In Our Hearts.
Seventeen teams came together for a fantastic day of friendly competition, networking, and fundraising at the beautiful Mar Hall Golf & Spa Resort. The weather held out, the course was in great condition, and spirits were high as participants teed off in support of a truly meaningful cause.
In the afternoon, we were delighted to welcome Christina and Agata from Held In Our Hearts. Christina gave a heartfelt speech to the group, sharing how the charity supports families across Scotland through bereavement counselling and peer support following the loss of a baby. Her words reminded us all why this event – and the funds raised – matter so much.
A huge thank you goes out to our event sponsors and all those who took part.
Let’s make next year’s event even bigger.
