September 5th, 2018 Posted by Golf

The Urban Edge Foundation Celebrity Golf Day 2018 raised a wonderful £15,124 for dementia charity, the Alzheimer’s Society.

Coinciding with Dementia Action Week, the celebrity event took place on 15th May 2018 at the lovely Moor Park Golf Club, Rickmansworth, and attracted celebrities from the worlds of sport, comedy and entertainment.

Our thanks go to all participants, including actor Kevin Whately, footballers Brian Stein, Paul Walsh, Graham Roberts, John Lacey and Paul Miller, cricketers Owais Shah and Dean Headley, rugby player Gregg Botterman and comedian Adger Brown.

By 2021, over a million people will be living with dementia. The Alzheimer’s Society is a national charity whose mission is to transform the landscape of dementia forever. As well as researching possible cures for the heart-breaking disease, the Alzheimer’s Society strives to create a society where those affected by dementia are supported and accepted.
