Foundation of Light Golf Day returns for 2024
Foundation of Light Golf Day returns to the Prince Bishops' course at Ramside Hall on Thursday 25th July.
We would like to thank Sunderland BID, the businesses based in Market Square and the members of the public who donated for their generosity. Our programmes make a real difference to those affected by mental health issues, giving them a new and positive outlook on life, and the money raised through the Give A Quid campaign will allow us to support even more people in our community.
Lesley Spuhler OBE, Foundation of Light CEOSharon Appleby, Head of Business Operations at Sunderland BID, added: “We are delighted to support the work of the Foundation – particularly in the crucial area of mental health. “This is an issue which affects our whole community so it’s great to see shoppers and businesses within the city centre giving it their backing, too.” HOW TO GET INVOLVED: There are lots of ways to get involved. A downloadable fundraising pack is available on the Foundation of Light website for businesses or supporters’ groups who would like to get involved in the days leading up to the game. Businesses who support the campaign can also receive visits from Sunderland AFC mascots Samson and Delilah, and Foundation of Light social media team. Stuck for ideas? Why not organise a red and white day at work? Or get out of the office at lunch time and enjoy a “wellbeing walk”? Or maybe get together to chat over lunch with friends and colleagues? Donations can be made in person at the Beacon of Light, text FOLQUID to 70085 or donate online via www.foundationoflight.co.uk.
