What a day! ⛳
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for the Ellard Promax Invitational at High Legh Golf Club.
From breakfast and a tour of Ellard HQ to a fantastic afternoon on the course, it was great to spend time with customers, partners and colleagues while raising money for a fantastic cause.
The day was filled with great golf, some healthy competition, and finished with an evening of food, drinks and prize presentations.
Most importantly, together we helped support Alder Hey Children's Charity, making the day even more meaningful.
Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to making the event such a success. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
