DOC Cleaning Hosts Annual Golf Tournament in Support of Local Charity Partner

On Wednesday 25th June, we proudly hosted a charity golf tournament in support of Grove Cottage, raising £4,557 - a fantastic total that will go a long way in helping the charity continue their invaluable work.

A Day to Remember

Held at the impressive Manor of Groves Golf Club in Sawbridgeworth, teams compiled of supply chain partners, clients and our own staff took part in an 18-hole golf tournament for a memorable day of sport, networking and giving back.

The day commenced with a hearty breakfast and check-in, followed by a welcome speech by our Joint Managing Directors, Jamie Bull and Lee Andrews, and Grove Cottage’s Fundraising Team Leader, Mina Pandya. The tournament began with a shotgun start at 10:30am, dividing teams across the course for some friendly competition.

Along the course, players stopped at the halfway house hosted by Grove Cottage, where they could purchase refreshments, raffle tickets and snacks.

With teams returning from the course at 4pm, players gathered for a well-earned dinner, accompanied by drinks, networking and speeches from DOC Cleaning and Grove Cottage representatives.

We’re thrilled to share that we raised £4,557 – a fantastic total that will go a long way in helping Grove Cottage continue their invaluable work, providing social and educational activities for individuals with learning disabilities.

Fundraising and Recognition

To round off the event, we hosted a silent auction and raffle, giving guests the chance to take home some fantastic prizes, from golf memorabilia such as signed pin flags, golf clubs and balls, to holidays and watches. A special thank you goes out to our sponsors and clients who donated these products which helped raise additional funds for Grove Cottage’s vital work.

We were delighted to recognise outstanding performances on the course with a series of awards:

Highest Scoring Individual: Alex Reynolds
Highest Scoring Team: Mike Frost, Steve Smith, Paul Rogan and Harry Andrews
Closest to the Pin: Jordan Newhall
Longest Drive: Harry Andrews

A Team Effort

A heartfelt thank you for the generous support of our 18 sponsors, who not only contributed financially but also helped with donations of raffle and auction prizes. Their support ensured that the proceeds could go directly to Grove Cottage’s programmes and services.

Looking Ahead

Under our Beyond Cleaning Strategy, we are committed to empowering those we connect with to take positive action for the planet and society. A key part of being able to achieve this commitment is by supporting local charities organisations that make a real impact in their communities.

We are proud to have supported Grove Cottage since 2011, and we will continue to work with Grove Cottage to make a difference in the communities we serve for many years to come.

We look forward to hosting more events like this in the future and continuing our partnership with Grove Cottage to support their incredible work.
