Time to get a round in …

D & I Windows is ‘ teed off ’ with Clearview Group , but thankfully it ’ s all in the name of fun – and fundraising – for the magazine ’ s first ever charity golf day .

UK ’ S LARGEST SYSTEMS SUPPLIER JOINS GGF

Dave Saxon of Barnsley-based D & I Windows , entered a team of four at Hickleton Golf Club for 18 rounds of golf , beat the pro , dinner and sports-memorabilia auction , in aid of GM Fundraising .
Dave commented : “ When we were invited to sponsor a hole at the event , we couldn ’ t resist joining in too . We have all been so busy in the industry ; seeing it as a good excuse to catch up with old friends and make new ones .
If we can do all of this , get a round of golf in AND raise some money for charity , all the better .
“ In the last two years at D & I , we ’ ve switched from PVCu to aluminium , expanded to a fourth factory , opened a new showroom and developed a new trade website , so there ’ s plenty to be proud of but we also deserve a day off too , or in this case , a ‘ day on ’ the golf course .”
