Success at our Hako Charity Golf Day 

By Georgia Fellows 

On Thursday 12th August 2021, Hako held a charity golf day at The Welcombe, a stunning hotel and golf-course in Stratford-Upon-Avon.  Organised and co-ordinated by Craig Metcalf, Sales Director, the event was raising money for Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children.

Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, has the UK’s largest range of specialist health services for children, with 63 different clinical specialties at the hospital. The hospital is the largest paediatric centre in the UK for: paediatric intensive care, cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, paediatric cancer services including bone marrow transplants, nephrology and renal transplants.  Children from overseas are supported and treated in their International and Private Patient wing. The hospital offers many children and their families physical, mental and emotional support through challenging times.

GOSH is such a worthwhile and high profile charity who have supported members of the team Hako family, it’s no wonder that many suppliers, customers and colleagues wanted to support the event.
