Lincoln-based Allen Signs is on course to help local charity Kesteven Children in Need raise thousands of pounds by sponsoring the signage at the KCiN Am-Am Golf Day at Blankney Golf Club.

This year marks Allen Signs 45th anniversary and as part of their celebrations the signmaker and engraver has entered a team of four into the event on Friday 7th May and is sponsoring the production of the signs for each of the 18 holes. 

As well as being invited to enter a team, local businesses have been asked to sponsor a hole and the signs, produced by Allen Signs, will carry the sponsor's logo.

Besides helping to raise money for charity, golfers will also have the opportunity to win some fantastic prizes for achievements such as the longest drive and nearest the pin.

First prize for the winning team is a day at Market Rasen Races for 12 people in a private hospitality box donated by Jockey Club Racecourses. So far 37 teams have entered the charity golf day but there's still room for a few more.

Established in 1968, Kesteven Children In Need provides much needed support and funding for local needy families. Treasurer Mrs Alex Howard said: "We are extremely grateful to everyone who has already entered a team, sponsored a hole or donated a prize. This is the first year Allen Signs has been involved with the competition and we really appreciate their generosity. 

"Last year we managed to raise £5,000 and this year we are hoping to at least match that total and if we're lucky raise even more!"

There is still time for businesses to get involved with the event either by entering a team, which costs £160 and includes a bacon sandwich and a hot meal, or by sponsoring a hole or both! 

For more information about the golf day or the charity please call Mrs Alex Howard on (01522) 722701
