St. Joseph's Family Centre

04/02/2026

Last year, we had the privilege of showing Warrington Golf Club’s Lady Captain, Edwina Greenwood, around St Joseph’s and telling her about the work we do in the community. We were honoured to be chosen as her ‘Charity of the Year’ for 2025 🎉

Edwina’s year has been full of incredible fundraising ideas and initiatives, a huge amount of hard work, detailed planning and events management (plus plenty of fun and laughs along the way!) It was an absolute privilege to be invited back to the Golf Club last week to collect a donation of ✨£13,080✨ raised for St Joseph’s Family Centre.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone at Warrington Golf Club who has helped raise funds, to Captain Andrew Mackenzie for your incredible support and to the remarkable Lady Captain, Edwina Greenwood, for championing our cause and encouraging so much involvement with your fundraising events throughout the year.
Your amazing contribution to St Joseph’s will help shape lives in our community.

Thank you for caring ❤

Brew Monday 2026 is a day dedicated to promoting social connections and mental well-being.

We’re proud to support campaign ☕ People can feel low on any day of the year but connecting over a cuppa is a great way to check in with each other 💚 https://bit.ly/3aaYyUD
