St Austell Brewery charity golf day raises £10,000 for Children’s Hospice South West

15th July 2026 - St Austell Brewery has raised £10,000 following a successful charity golf day attended by customers, suppliers and partners from across the South West.

The funds will support Children's Hospice South West, which has been selected by the St Austell Brewery Charitable Trust as its Charity of the Year. The charity provides care for children with life-limiting conditions and support for their families across the region.

Held at the historic Royal North Devon Golf Club, the event brought together guests for a day on the course followed by a barbecue, auction and raffle. Prizes included tickets to see Ariana Grande, helping to boost the final fundraising total.

Dan Crabb, Sales Director at St Austell Brewery, said: "We're incredibly proud to have raised £10,000 for Children's Hospice South West through this fantastic golf event.

"Bringing together our customers, suppliers and colleagues was a brilliant way to support an incredible charity that makes a real difference in the South West. We'd like to thank everyone who took part and showed such generous support throughout the day.”

Across its three hospices in Cornwall, Devon and North Somerset, Children's Hospice South West offers far more than medical and nursing care. Every stay is designed to enrich lives, create precious memories, ease emotional and practical pressures and help families make the very most of their time together.

One of St Austell Brewery's key fundraising initiatives this year is donating 25p from every portion of fish and chips sold across its 45 managed pubs. Teams across the company's head offices, breweries, pubs and depots are also taking part in activities throughout the year, to help raise vital funds.
