Bridget, who stepped down from her captaincy at the end of October, hosted a coffee morning, organised a meal and held a golf day at the club to achieve her donation.

A former breast cancer patient, Bridget said: “I chose to support Rosemere Cancer Foundation as my charity to give something back for the treatment I received following my diagnosis. Breast cancer has also affected a number of other lady club members. Like me, they too have received excellent care both locally and at Rosemere Cancer Centre.”
