On 7th September 2023, Kirby & Knott Financial Planning hosted nearly 90 golfers for the annual golf day at Lilley Brook Golf Club. We were blown away at the generosity and support for this years event. With every hole kindly sponsored by local businesses, the halfway house sponsored by Redkite Solicitors, the welcome desk supported by Blue Sky Signs and the goody bags sponsored by One to One Recruitment, we knew we were off to a great start on our fundraising total!
Before teeing off, teams enjoyed bacon rolls and coffees as well as warm cookies supplied by Hilton Double Tree next door to the course. The teams basked in 30 degree heat and competed in individual and team challenges as well as closest to the pin and longest drive competitions. Following the golf, players enjoyed an amazing two course meal in the clubhouse whilst the raffle, prize draw and auction took place.
This years golf day raised an incredible £8,500. Kirby & Knott have been huge supporters of the Trust since they started their business and also recently signed up to Corporate Ambassador status, which reinforced their commitment. The money raised from the day will be invaluable.
Nick Gazzard, CEO and founder said ” Kirby and Knott delivered another fantastic golf day at Lilley Brook raising vital funds for the Trust. The Trust does not receive any grant funding so rely heavily on events like the golf day to raise funds that will allow us to continue the work that we undertake in schools, colleges and universities, to help young people become better citizens and make our communities more resilient to the present day challenges. We are very grateful to all the sponsors, golfers and staff at Kirby and Knott for their generosity.”
