VISITORS at a golf day clubbed together to raise around £14,000 for hospice charity Demelza.

The event at Sundridge Park Golf Course, Garden Road, Bromley, was organised by former Charlton Athletic assistant manager Keith Peacock.

It was held to support the Demelza Hospice Care for Children's Capital Appeal, which is raising money to build a new hospice in Court Road, Eltham. £3.5m of the £6.5 target has been raised so far.

Around 80 people took part in the event, including Charlton manager Alan Pardew and former footballers turned BBC pundits Mark Bright and Lee Dixon.

Mr Peacock said: "I am absolutely thrilled so many celebrities turned out to support Demelza in this way."

Demelza area fundraising manager Terrie Kennor said: "As we rely almost totally on fundraising events like this to raise awareness and money to complete the build, Keith's contribution to the cause has been amazing."
