A Huge Thank You to Kendleshire Golf Club!

The Brightwell team were absolutely thrilled to welcome Martyn and Sue Olds on Monday, 24 November. Martyn, the Men’s Club Captain at Kendleshire Golf Club, arrived with an extraordinary gift: a cheque for an incredible £10,000!

Doro, Lara, and Brightwell member Liz proudly and gratefully accepted the kind donation.

Martyn chose The Brightwell as his Charity of the Year for 2025, and he and his golfers have been hard at work raising this phenomenal sum.

One of the most inspiring highlights was on 3 September, when a group of Kendleshire Members left their golf clubs behind, jumped on their bikes, and took on an epic 100-mile ride to Machynys Golf and Monk Island Resort in Llanelli.

But Martyn didn’t stop there. He and the team kept the momentum going throughout the year with a whole range of fundraising ideas, including the creation of a special Brightwell Beer!

The Kendleshire has supported The Brightwell whenever they can for many years, even sponsoring a therapy room when the Centre first opened.

To Martyn and Sue, to the incredible cyclists, and to every single member of Kendleshire Golf Club who donated or cheered the efforts on: thank you.

Your support helps ensure we can continue offering essential therapies and care to people living with neurological conditions. This generous donation will go directly towards funding therapies, equipment, and support services that make a real difference to the lives of our community; our members, their families and carers.
