England Golf and The Golf Trust have joined forces to create more opportunities for individuals with disabilities to participate in golf. This collaboration aims to make the sport more inclusive and accessible to people of all backgrounds.
The Memorandum of Understanding signed between England Golf and The Golf Trust highlights their shared commitment to providing enhanced opportunities for those with disabilities. By promoting The Golf Trust’s events and referral services, the collaboration seeks to connect disabled individuals with golfing opportunities in communities across the country.
The Golf Trust, a national charity dedicated to making golf accessible to all, has already made significant strides in bringing the benefits of the sport to thousands of people. By working together, England Golf and The Golf Trust hope to expand the reach of golf into new communities and provide tailored activities for disabled individuals of all ages.
Rob Drinkwater, Head of Participation and Development at England Golf, expressed excitement about the partnership, emphasizing the importance of providing opportunities for people with disabilities to experience the many benefits of golf. Cae Menai-Davis, founder of The Golf Trust, highlighted the significance of access to golf as a barrier to participation, particularly for individuals with disabilities.
This collaboration aligns with England Golf’s Respect in Golf movement, which aims to promote equality, diversity, and inclusion within the sport. By working together, England Golf and The Golf Trust are paving the way for a more inclusive and welcoming golfing community for individuals of all abilities.
