Hall gives its charity work extra flavour
ATASTY colourful cocktail is giving a special kick to Shrigley Hall’s charity push this year.
The Shrigley Sunflower was created by Andy Gaskell, head bartender at the hotel and spa, to celebrate the venue’s support for East Cheshire Hospice.
The drink - vodka, peach schnapps, pineapple and orange juice, lemonade and a touch of Blue Curacao - is named in honour of the charity’s well-known floral emblem.
Shrigley Hall has chosen East Cheshire as its nominated charity of the year and wants to mark its support in style.
A golf event on Tuesday, June 21, starts at 5am with the last tee off time at 5pm to take advantage of the extra sunlight.
The Longest Day Golf Open is open to members and non-members.
The individual event will be played over the rolling hills at Shrigley Hall, regarded as one of the most scenic courses in Cheshire.
Food and drink is included in the £40 entry fee with on-course prizes.
To enter call 01625 575 626 or email golfpro@ shirgleyhallhotelandspa. co.uk
The hotel is hoping customers will also support its commitment to the charity in other ways as well.
An optional £1 charitable contribution will be made from a brochure which lists different walking routes around Pott Shrigley village and beyond.
Guests use the hotel as a base to enjoy popular challenging woodland walks.
The hotel will also invite guests to round up accommodation bills with the difference donated to the Hospice.
In addition, eight staff members have volunteered to tackle the Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge in September.
