A Decade of Dedication
Celebrating a decade of giving back is no small feat, and our team is buzzing with enthusiasm. From the initial brainstorming sessions to coordinating with sponsors and partners, every detail has been meticulously planned to make this year's Charity Golf Day truly special.
The Venue: Mar Hall Golf and Spa Resort
Our first sneak peek takes us to the breathtaking Mar Hall Golf and Spa Resort. The lush greenery, the pristine fairways, and the elegant backdrop set the stage for a day filled with camaraderie and goodwill. Our team has been working closely with Mar Hall’s team to ensure everything is in perfect order for our participants.
Honoring Gavin Hagart's Legacy
This year, we pay tribute to Gavin Hagart at ProntaPrint, a true supporter for over a decade. Our team is committed to making this year’s event the best yet in Gavin’s honour and raising as much money as possible for St Columba’s Hopsice who supported him and his family through a truly difficult period in their lives.
Partnering with St Columba’s Hospice
The decision to partner with St Columba’s Hospice adds a meaningful layer to our preparations. Collaborating with the hospice team, we are ensuring that their presence and the importance of their cause are seamlessly integrated into every aspect of the event.
Sponsorship Brilliance
Sponsors play a pivotal role in making the Charity Golf Day a success. Behind the scenes, our team has been in constant communication with our sponsors, ensuring that their logos are prominent, and their support is acknowledged in a way that truly reflects our gratitude.
We are looking for more sponsors to support the tournament and we have a number of sponsorship opportunities available. Please email Amanda for more information.
Team Spirit
Last but certainly not least, the incredible team spirit propelling us forward. From the event coordinators to the volunteers, everyone is pouring their heart and soul into making this day a success. It's this collective effort that transforms an idea into a memorable experience.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue our journey towards the 10th Annual Charity Golf Day. We can't wait to welcome you all to a day filled with golf, goodwill, and giving back!
This year we have partnered with St Columba’s Hospice, an independent charity offering free, flexible and person-centred palliative care and support to patients and their families. The St. Columba’s Hospice team were there for Gavin and his family during a very difficult time in their lives.
