Members of the club also ran a bowling fun day and cooked up a feat on the barbecue for their guests.

It is the second year the club has put on the ‘Thank You’ day to show their appreciation to NHS staff in the area.

Nigel Walker, from Ashcombe Park Bowling Club, said: “Approximately 70 guests from the NHS joined us for a fun bowling event and barbecue and a great time was had by all.”
