Fundraising Manager at St David’s Hospice, Adrian Owen took to the chal
lenge in 2021. Adrian and two of his friends decided to challenge themselves to 50 holes in one day to mark turning 50!
Here’s what Adrian said: “We wanted to do something different and special to celebrate our 50th birthdays, and decided what better than by doing something we loved!
“In August 2021, we played 50 holes across five courses in a day.
We set up an online fundraising page, had collecting cans on the bar and buckets on the course as we played.
“We managed to raise over £2,000 for St David’s Hospice.
“We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it as a fundraiser!
“We even added a team sweep for the most birdies, I won’t tell you who lost that one though!”
So how do you get involved?
Get your team together and set a date!
Plan your course (decide if you’re going to play on one course or multiple courses and book your tee times.)

This year it is going to cost over £6.7 million to run St David’s Hospice services across North West Wales, with just a small percentage of that figure coming from the Welsh Government and Local Health Board.
