A charity golf day organised by a Park Hall business has raised more than £4,000 to help not one, but two charities.

EvaStore Document Management, based on the Artillery Business Park, hosted its first charity golf day at Oswestry Golf Club recently.

In total 11 teams signed up to take part and former PGA champion, Scott Drummond even came along for the day, challenging the teams in a ‘Beat the Pro’ competition.

With the help of everyone’s generosity throughout the day and evening, bidding in an auction and buying raffle tickets, they managed to raise £2,100 for Hope House and £2,100 for Duchenne UK, their chosen charities for this year’s event.

Patrick Evans, managing director of EvaStore, said: "Hope House was one of EvaStore’s first ever customers back in 2004.

"And for 15 years now, we have been entrusted to store and shred some of their understandably sensitive documents and their business is very much valued to us, but it’s what they do that is invaluable to so many more people, which is why we wanted to show our support to the charity by raising as much money as possible for them.

"Duchenne UK, has a mission to eradicate Duchenne in 10 years. As a charity they fund research and trials to accelerate drug development and offer community engagement and support.

"We hope that our modest contribution will help Duchenne UK achieve their goal."

Partick and Jess Jones from EvaStore recently visited Hope House Children's Hospice in Morda to present their cheque to Andy Goldsmith, chief executive, and Lynsey Kilvert, fundraiser.

The team at EvaStore are now planning next year’s golf day which they say will be even bigger and better.
