We fund research, counselling and advocacy to cure and support people with sight loss

Story

I am going to take on the challenge of learning how to play golf and beat a score of 100 shots, for 18 holes, during the summer of 2021.

I've always wanted to know how to play and thought that I should try and raise funds for Fighting Blindness while doing so.

Under the tutelage of, Ex European Tour Pro, Gary Murphy I am going to learn how to play over the next 6 months and hopefully achieve my goal by the Summer of 2021.

My lessons are going to take place at the wonderful K Club resort, in Kildare, where Gary is the teaching professional. 

Please donate and help me raise funds for Fighting Blindness .
