Mike Nankivell said, ‘We are delighted to have raised so much for the 999 helicopter. £1746 is a record for our charity event, and we are most grateful to Panasonic and Space Airconditioning for donating the raffle prizes of an LCD television and an i-Pod Nano and to all our members for their generous support.’
Stevie Horton explains, ‘We need to raise £1.2 million each and every year to keep the 999 helicopter operating seven days a week, and without the support of groups like the Thames Valley BTU Golfing Society, we would not achieve this.’
