Inaugural Golf Day a Hole-in-One!
The inaugural Rose Road Charity Golf Day at Stoneham Golf Club has raised an incredible £17,490 to support children and young adults with complex disabilities, thanks to the generosity of players, sponsors and supporters.
The event brought together local businesses and supporters for a fantastic day of golf, networking and fundraising, all in aid of Rose Road.
With every swing, auction bid and raffle ticket sold, participants helped raise vital funds to enable disabled young people to enjoy more therapies, activities and trips that promote wellbeing, friendship and independence.
Rose Road extends its grateful thanks to everyone who took part, donated prizes or sponsored the event, with particular thanks to Headline Sponsor Radcliffe & Co Independent Financial Advisers and Hole in One sponsors Peter Cooper Motor Group for their generous support.
The evening celebrations were hosted by Aaron Phipps MBE PLY, who shared some enlightening stories and did a spectacular job leading the fundraising auction.
Congratulations to the winning team
Congratulations go to HWB Chartered Accountants, whose directors Tom Young and James Flood, and team mates Chris Braxton and Dan Roberts, took first place with an impressive 96 points, finishing ahead of some excellent competition.
The team celebrated a fantastic result on the course and shared their pride in supporting Rose Road and thanked everyone involved in organising such a memorable day. They said "We were honoured to be involved and look forward to supporting future events."
Making a difference together
The £17,490 raised will help Rose Road continue providing specialist care, life-enhancing services and family support programmes for children and young adults with complex disabilities.
Every contribution helps create opportunities for our young people to build meaningful friendships, develop independence through having the opportunity to make real-world choices, and enjoy experiences that enrich their lives.
