During our 2025 charity golf event, participants swung, putted, and chipped their way to raising over £4,500 for charity.
On a gloriously sunny day, we invited 72 employees, partners and friends to tee off in support of the Youth Adventure Trust at the Kendleshire Golf Club.
Guests included representatives from Ridge and Partners, Swindon Borough Council, Holland Cooper, Oxford Architects, Serco, Sphere Solutions, 365 Contractors, Acorn Recruitment, and many more.
A highlight of the day was an inspirational talk by Philippa Cox, Corporate Partnership Manager at the Youth Adventure Trust, who shared first-hand accounts of how the charity uplifts and empowers young people through outdoor challenges and activities.
