Sally Hillyear, fundraising manager, said: ‘We’re so thankful to Kevin and everyone at Hampshire Hackers for raising such an amazing amount of money at their golf day earlier in the year.’

The fundraising event, which also helped Autism Hampshire, will allow The Haven to help four people through a programme of support which includes 10 free therapies.

Kevin Dye, from the Hampshire Hackers, said: ‘We have been delighted to help two charities this year and The Haven in Titchfield is an amazing facility for people locally.’
