Organised by Crowborough based Studio44, over 60 golfers competed across the greens of the Nevill Golf Club before retiring to the clubhouse for a gala dinner with raffle and auction, raising over £8,500 for West Kent Mind (WKM) and Taylor Made Dreams.
Both the charities work across Kent, with Taylor Made providing funding for children who have life-limiting conditions to benefit from therapeutic services, as well as ‘bucket list’ treats with their families.
Meanwhile, West Kent Mind helps anyone with a mental health problem in the Sevenoaks, Tonbridge & Malling and Tunbridge Wells districts by offering them somewhere to turn for advice and support.
“The work they do is outstanding and they make such an enormous difference to the lives of so many”
Studio 44 hosted the charity event on July 6. Agency director Doug Rubashow said: “This is the fifth year we have run the day and this year we supported the wonderful charities West Kent Mind and Taylor Made Dreams.
“The work they do is outstanding and they make such an enormous difference to the lives of so many. We’re excited to be doing more work to support them moving forward.”
Thanking Studio44 for sponsoring her charity since 2019, Taylor Made founder and CEO Suzi Mitchell said: “The recent charity golf day was a tremendous success, and the funds raised will go on to raise smiles in the eyes of children with life-limiting illnesses in Kent and further afield.”
This was the first year Studio44 had supported WKM, and CEO Stevie Rice said: “We are incredibly grateful to Studio44 for choosing to support West Kent Mind through their annual golf day.
“It was a fantastic event, and we are honoured to have been a part of it. “Our sincere thanks go to everyone who supported the golf day and helped to raise in excess of £8,500 for West Kent Mind and Taylor Made Dreams.
“This will make a real difference and help us to provide quality services and support to people experiencing mental ill health in West Kent, helping them to get well, stay well and thrive.”
