Newcastle restaurant to spice up golf in aid of charity

Keen golfers are being urged to practice their swing and bring their appetites to take part in Mantra Thai Dining’s charity golf day in aid of the Sunshine Fund.

To help raise funds for the North East charity, on Wednesday 06 July 2016, golfers with a love of fine dining can enjoy a round of golf at Matfen Hall followed by a meal at the Newcastle-based restaurant.

All proceeds from the event, which is being hosted in partnership with the restaurant’s wine supplier House of Townend, will be donated to the Sunshine Fund to help provide specialised equipment for children with disabilities in the North east.

The charity golf day will see golfers enjoy a pre-game morning brew and sandwich before taking to Matfen Hall’s 27-hole golf course spanning over 6700 yards, including challenging water features and unique obstacles at 11am. The party will then head to the restaurant for 7pm to enjoy a three course Thai meal alongside the winner’s prize presentation and charity raffle during the evening.

Jeab Prapunwong, Mantra Thai owner, said: “At Mantra Thai we highly value the importance of giving back and are looking forward to hosting this exciting event to help raise essential funds for such a fantastic cause – the Sunshine Fund.

“Our charity golf day is perfect for keen golfers as well as those who would like to make the most of a summer’s day surrounded by the beautiful scenery at Matfen Hall, and after a day on the course – what better way to relax than to indulge in an evening of fine dining.”

Caroll Pattison, Fund Director at the Sunshine Fund, said: “Without the generosity of businesses and individuals we would not be able to support children with disabilities in the region so I’d like to thank Mantra Thai for choosing the Sunshine Fund as its beneficiary.

“The restaurant’s charity golf day is a perfect example of how fundraising can be enjoyable and I’d urge those who would like to be part of this event and support our charity to book their place.”

Tickets are priced at £80 per person and include a round of golf at Matfen Hall followed by a three course meal at Mantra Thai Dining. Dining-only tickets are also available and priced at £30 per person. For more information on the event or to book tickets call 0191 232 6080.
