Charity Golf Day

Dust off your golf clubs, Martin Folan’s Charity Golf Day is back, and this year is a big milestone! - Celebrating 20 Years of The Kirkwood Charity Golf Day.

We are absolutely thrilled to invite you to the 20th Anniversary of Martin Folan’s Charity Golf Day on Saturday, 20th June 2026. What started as a heartfelt tribute has grown into a cornerstone of our community fundraising, and we want you to be part of this special platinum celebration at the Bradley Park Golf Club.

Celebrating two Decades of Making a Difference: Since the very first fundraiser in 2006, this event has been fueled by love and legacy. Martin initially turned his passion for golf into a way to honour his sister, Bridie Foster, and brother-in-law, Kevin Foster (fondly known as ‘Bomber’). Over the last 20 years, we have gathered to remember them, alongside Stephen Jones and Michael Kay, ensuring their spirits live on through the incredible care provided by The Kirkwood.

The Kirkwood was built on the belief that everyone deserves the very best support as they approach the end of their life. By joining us for this anniversary year, you aren’t just playing a round of golf, you're providing a lifeline for local families and carers when they need it most.

Gather your team of four for a day of healthy competition and exclusive use of the beautiful Bradley Park Golf Course.

Take on the course alongside fellow supporters and test your skills in our Signature Hole challenge for a chance to win some fantastic prizes. To keep you fueled, we’re serving up delicious hot roast beef sandwiches and chips upon completion of the course hwere you'll be invited to join us for the evening presentations where winners will be announced, followed by a celebratory Disco and Karaoke to toast 20 years of fundraising!

The registration fee is £160 per team of four. 

 The registration fee includes hot food and refreshments, and sampling of Pork Pies from Jones Pies at the half way point, free entry into the signature hole competition, use of our 18-hole golf course and clubhouse, and hot roast beef sandwich and chips after your round of Golf, followed by an evening of presentations and live band entertainment starting at 7.30pm. Please let us know if you have any dietary requirements ahead of the day.
