A 'golf day' has raised more than £20,000 for the Island's Hospice.

Suntera Global hosted the occassion last month at Castletown Golf Links, where they raised £20,270 for the charity.

The event saw 22 teams brave the elements to compete for prizes such as the longest drive, straightest drive and nearest the pin.

A raffle, which saw prizes such as a session on a golf simulator and a helicopter ride also raised £9,000.

Suntera Global has planned another golf event in Jersey later this year, hoping to raise funds for Jersey Hospice.
