South Yorkshire businesses tee it up to raise funds for paces

Business owners and professionals from Sheffield, Barnsley & Rotherham recently participated in a charity golf day at Wortley Golf Club to raise vital funds for local charity, Paces.

Now in its fourth year, the charity golf day took place on Wednesday, 12th June 2024, with 78 golfers representing 22 companies. The event was sponsored by UK-wide talent management specialists Nicholas Associates Group, CSP Systems, and Oxley & Coward Solicitors LLP.

The winning team, representing Actus Insurance, scored 88 points. Over £1,500 was raised through a variety of activities, including raffles, beer buggies, and the halfway house, throughout the day.

All funds raised will support Paces, a leading specialist centre in Sheffield for children with Cerebral Palsy and other motor disorders. Paces was established in the 1990s by parents who recognised the benefits of Conductive Education for children with cerebral palsy.

Dave Hall, Fundraising & Communications Manager at Paces, added: “We are extremely grateful to everyone who participated in the golf day. Fundraising is crucial as it helps us continue providing vital services to people and families most affected by neurological disorders.”

Nicholas Associates Group CEO, Paul Smith, commented on the event’s success, saying: “This is our fourth year hosting a golf day to benefit local charities. Paces is a wonderful charity, and we are more than happy to support them in whatever way we can.”

Andy Bethel, Director of CSP Systems, remarked: “Supporting Paces through this golf event is incredibly rewarding. It’s fantastic to see so many businesses come together for such a worthy cause.”

Amy Cusworth, Partner from Oxley & Coward Solicitors LLP, added: “We are proud to sponsor this event and support Paces in their mission to provide essential services to children with Cerebral Palsy. The dedication of everyone involved is truly inspiring.”
