Always one for a challenge, our member Grahame Connor is taking on a new charity adventure later this month as he plays golf for 24 hours on the 20th and 21st June, raising money and awareness for Prostate Cancer.
Graham will begin his challenge at 4pm on the Saturday, and will play through the night (hopefully not too much darkness on the shortest night!), aided by night balls and lights. He will continue playing into the Sunday, including teeing up in the Beltane Handicap event, aiming to finish around 4pm on the Sunday alongside his brother Ian.

Grahame has recently been diagnosed with early stage prostrate cancer and he is aiming to raise awareness of this type of cancer, which is one that is the most common in men - one in 8 men tested are having a positive result. Grahame, like many others, will have seen the huge campaign that Sir Chris Hoy has been promoting, which he said "probably saved my life, as it highlighted the symptoms that I acted on as soon as they showed and the reason I was caught early."
