Story
Hello. On Monday the 3rd of July 3 friends and I will, for the 3rd year in a row, be aiming to play 4 rounds of golf in one day. We will start at sunrise (4.45 am ish) and finish sometime before sunset (fingers crossed). We will walk over 20 miles in the day and play about 360 shots each.
Yet again I will be carrying my clubs for all 4 rounds, (that means no buggies, caddies or pull/push trolleys to help me out). If you use any of the above when playing one round of golf, you will understand how tough it will be for me to carry my clubs for all 4 rounds!
Last year we played 2 rounds in a monsoon and spent the lunch hour drying out all of our clothes, shoes and golf clubs, and buying new gloves and towels for the afternoon session. We are praying for much better weather this time round, but whatever the weather, we will finish!
This year we will be playing at The Shire Golf Course in North London (http://www.theshirelondon.com/). It's the only golf course in the UK designed by Golfing legend Seve Ballesteros!
We all hope to raise as much money as possible for Macmillan Cancer Support (https://www.macmillan.org.uk/) This is our way of supporting the fantastic people who provide help and support to individuals and families dealing with cancer.
I appreciate many of you give to and raise money for other charities and I am very grateful for any and all donations.
So, a big THANKS for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Fundraising is hugely important to Macmillan. Without people doing events, running marathons, climbing mountains, and donating in all the other ways that you can, Macmillan wouldn’t exist. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs.
Thank you. Paul.
