It's in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support
Simmons Gainsford is delighted to be taking on the Longest Day Golf Challenge again to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support - playing 72 holes of golf in one day, from sunrise until sunset!
On Friday 30 June 2023, Partners Darren Hersey, David Pumfrey and Shilen Manek will be joined by Associate Partner, Tom Jeffries, at Woodcote Park Golf Club in Coulsdon, Surrey to take on the challenge for a great cause. We have already raised over £11,000!
Our story
In early 2019, our then Senior Partner, Stephen Jennings, was diagnosed with cancer. In tribute to Stephen, we decided to take part in the challenge, and in July 2019, with the amazing amount of support from colleagues, contacts, family and friends, we were able to raise over £18,000. Our team were also immensely proud to be placed second in the fundraising out of 3,500 teams nationally.
We know that the last 3 years have been difficult for charities and so we have once again decided to take on this challenge and raise money for such a worthy cause.
