Due to the coronavirus pandemic, donations and many fund-raising activities have been canceled or postponed. Therefore, the Belfry Hotel & Resort have decided to donate its entire green fee income on its first day of reopening to a number of UK charities. This would help meet the shortfall caused by the cancellation of the charity events.
The donations from the resort’s green fees will support a variety of causes, from cancer, heart, kidney and Parkinson’s treatment, children’s hospitals and hospices, to charity trusts supporting ex-sportsmen. It also includes the two nominated Belfry charities for 2020, Matt Hampson Foundation and LoveBrum.
Katie Niland, Sales Director, Belfry said in a statement that the company wants to share some positivity and support during the present exceptionally challenging time. She said that the action would help many charities who rely on donations to survive and would also show the company’s support for the amazing work they do.
She mentioned that the hotel has the opportunity to host many charity golf days a year, so the company has decided to take the chance to give something back to those who require it to continue helping those in need.
She further added that the hotel is looking forward to the first day the property reopens the courses and hope for it to count. She informed that Brabazon, PGA National, and the Derby will all be available to play and there will be fun opportunities out on the courses to donate further. She urged every beginner, amateur or pro golfer to contribute for a good cause.
