Friday was the Trust’s Annual Golf Day and what an amazing event it was! So many wonderful golfers and supporters came along to the beautiful Naunton Downs Golf Course in Cheltenham and took part in the 6th golf event organised by the Trust. It rained, it poured and there was even lightening at some point! But that didn’t stop those brave folk – it was another wonderful day.

Another big thank you to Professor Anita MacDonald OBE and Anne Daly from Birmingham Children’s Hospital for coming along and giving a presentation about the work we do with their metabolic unit. It is always a highlight of our evening and really well received. Thanks for flossing as well, and raising £120! That’s something that will live long in the memory…
Thanks also to Simon, Sophia, Oliver, and helpers for driving the infamous lash buggy around the course. And a mega thank you to everyone who donated some drinking auction and raffle prizes. There are some very generous folks out there and we simply can’t do what we do without you.
Thank you to Nick for the scoring again! We’re relieved to leave it in your capable hands.
Well done to Dan, Grace, Holly, Charlie and Isla for doing the club cleaning again, despite the rain! And thank you for putting on a little presentation about what the charity means to you and reducing us all to tears.
Finally, thank you to Campbell’s Auntie Claire and Uncle Chris for organising another successful day. You are a pair of legends.
And…drum roll…the day raised £6000! An incredible amount. To everyone who came along and made this day so brilliant – thank you 💙
