Lady Captain’s Charity Donation
Monday, 16 March 2015
During her year as Lady Captain of Ruthin Pwllglas Golf Club in 2014 Wendy Roberts raised £3000 for her nominated charity – Transplant Sport UK.
She said that £400 of that amount had been raised by her then Vice-Captain Laura King when she climbed the three highest mountains in Wales. Wendy wished to thank Laura very much for her generosity in donating that amount to TSUK.
Wendy’s reasons for choosing TSUK were mainly because Brenda, her younger sister, had a liver transplant in September 2012.
Wendy said that the charity was ideal as it raised awareness of the need for organ donation; encouraged transplant recipients to lead active lifestyles and showed appreciation for, and remembered, donors and their families.
