The fundraising total is in and the third annual Your Harrogate Radio and Fat Badger golf day raised £11,000 for two local charities.

The event, which was launched in 2023, returned to Oakdale Gold Club on 9th May.

This year’s chosen charities were Harrogate Neighbours and Horticap, who will each receive a £5,500 share of the proceeds.

The golf day saw 20 teams take to the course in a Texas Scramble format to include golfers of all abilities.

Adam Daniel, Commercial Director for Your Harrogate, said:

“It was another brilliant golf day at the fantastic Oakdale, who were so accommodating and continue to make it a special event for us.

“To raise another outstanding amount in £11,000 is incredible and we know it will make a huge difference to our chosen charities.

“We’ve now raised more than £33,000 since we launched this event in partnership with The Fat Badger in 2023, which is remarkable.”
