Fundraising That's Well Above Par

We're thrilled to bring you news of a recent fundraising challenge, taken on by Steve Bale, Karl Lees and Steve John. The trio set themselves the task of completing 'The Longest Day in Golf' and so it was, that on 5th June, they set off to play golf for 15 1/2 hours, without the aid of buggies or power trollies. Their challenge took them from 4.30am until their last putt at 8pm. Needless to say there were weary legs and the odd blister by the end of the day!

 
 Steve Bale, Steve John and Karl Lees get ready to start the first round...
 ...and here they are at the finish line!

Over the course of the day, Steve B, Karl and Steve J walked over 20 miles, took over 52,000 steps, played 361 shots and only lost 5 golf balls. 

A huge thank you to our golfing pros and to everyone who supported them in raising over £600 for Guy's Gift.
