Tee off for fundraising golf day

The annual Golf Day in aid of Fight for Sight will take place on Wednesday 5 July at Stoneleigh Deer Park Golf Club near Coventry – and organisers are looking for both players and supporters.

The day of play will include a minimum of six team prizes, a ‘prize every time’ tombola, auction of promises, halfway house snacks and a chance to win a prize on every one of the 18 holes. Tee times are from 10.30am until 1.30pm and the cost of a four-person team entry is £300.

“Last year, our Golf Day raised over £6,000 in aid of sight saving research,” said event organiser Debbie White.

“The reason this cause is so important is that in the UK, only 1.5 per cent of the £1.4bn that UK Research and Innovation, government and other public bodies invests in medical research was for eye research. With the help of our colleagues and peers in the optical profession and industry, we can be part of that brighter future.”
