Golfability Club focus

The UK Golf Society Ramstein, Germany, chose to nominate one of their competitions to support Leonard Cheshire Disability – acknowledging the Air Force heritage of the charity’s founder, Group Captain Lord Leonard Cheshire.

The Golf Society is made up of both current and retired Royal Air Force personnel, serving with the NATO Air Headquarters in South-West Germany. Each month, 40 club members – often joined by NATO colleagues from Germany, Holland, Belgium, Norway and USA – play a medal competition at one of the many clubs local to them, or sometimes further afield.

Their Golfability day, held on Wednesday 16 June at Nahetal Golf Club, was won by Jack Whiting and raised £400 for the charity – a fantastic total, so thank you to all at UK Golf Society Ramstein for your support!
