Clan tees up Moray Golf Day as next event in charity’s anniversary celebrations
25 March 2024 • Sarah Medcraf
Keen golfers are being invited to take a swing at raising funds for Clan Cancer Support at Moray Golf Club next month.
The old course will host Clan’s first ever Moray Golf Day on Friday April 26 as part of a series of events to celebrate the charity’s 10-year anniversary in Moray.
Players will enjoy breakfast in the Clubhouse at 10am before taking to the green at the classic links course designed by world renowned Scottish golfer Old Tom Morris.
A BBQ and prize giving will conclude the event with teams of four invited to register for £500. Additional hole sponsorship opportunities are also available.
Julie Ferguson, Clan’s Moray local services co-ordinator said: “Clan Golf Days are a popular fixture in our fundraising calendar and we are excited to bring the event to Moray next month, giving golfers the chance to play on one of the finest links courses in Scotland.
“The event is the perfect opportunity to entertain clients or teambuild with colleagues with all proceeds going towards Clan’s lifeline cancer support services. We’d urge those looking to take part to book now to avoid disappointment.”
Clan’s Elgin centre was officially opened by Princess Anne in 2013 following the charity being established in Aberdeen in 1983.
The charity offers a listening and support service for anyone impacted by a cancer diagnosis, a dedicated children and families team to help young people and their loved ones navigate a cancer journey and NHS aligned complementary therapies.
The Moray Golf Day is part of a special events programme to celebrate the charity’s 10th anniversary in Elgin.
The charity’s 2023 Cavalcade kickstarted the celebrations, with 20 classic car and motorcycle drivers taking a scenic trip to some of the north-east’s most prolific steel and metal workshops in September to raise more than £14,000 for the charity.
A further £3,000 was raised at the charity’s birthday quiz night with 140 guests attending the event at the Elgin District Ex-Serviceman’s Club on Saturday, October 14.
The events programme will conclude with the Clan Ceilidh at Laichmoray Hotel, Elgin on Saturday, 7th September 2024 with tickets priced at £30.
