Ian's beard shave at GCA Conference raises £8k for Greenfingers

There was more FUNdraising activity at the GCA Conference after the Annual Dinner.  Woodlodge's Ian Flounders had his beard removed and raised almost £8k for Greenfingers in the process.

 

 

Ian told GTN Xtra: "It was a very liberating experience, Carol (Chopping) Topping has missed her vocation in life she did a fantastic job. A barbershop at Barton Grange?

 

"My partner is over the moon not having to live with 'Santa'. Rhian said "I look 10 years younger".

 

"We raised a staggering £7680.00 for GREENFINGERS. All I can say is diolch pawb ( Welsh for thank you everyone) , thank you to everyone who contributed especially my super star fundraisers Hugh ORL GC and Helen from Stratford GC."
