The Freeman Heart and Lung Transplant Association would like to thank Oakleaf Golf Club, Newton Aycliffe, for hosting a Charity Golf Day on Saturday 24th July.
There was a great turnout for the day with 56 golfers taking part from around the region.
Prizes were donated from the FHLTA, Woodham Golf Club, Whitburn Golf Club and Consett Golf Club.
Over £500 was raised for the charity, who support patients and families waiting for or after receiving a heart or lung transplant.
Adele Lambert and Debbie Burdon, who have both had life saving lung transplants, helped to spread the word about the importance of organ donation, as, even though the law changed in May 2020 to opt out donations, your family still need to agree to donating loved ones organs for transplant.
If you wish to be an organ donor please share your wishes with your family.
Adele Lambert
