The money for both charities was raised by running quizzes at the club.
Kevin Tarbox, current captain of Daventry Golf Club, said: “I’d like to thank all the people that helped raise the money and John Hunter and his wife Jane; Gill Leppard and her husband Mick who helped run the quizzes.”
A further £950 was raised to refurbish the Barret Bar.
