OUR NOAH'S BIG CHARITY GOLF DAYS
Since NBC was established in 2013, Glen London has been a champion for the charity. Under Glen's stewardship, our Charity Golf Day has grown from humble beginnings in 2014 to the key fundraising event of the Charity calendar each year.
With a host of regular attendees and a waiting list for new golfers, we are incredibly fortunate to have a loyal and generous group of supporters and a host of sponsors who are nothing but outstanding! Every year is a great day for golf, fun and fundraising! We can't thank Glenn or the host of supporters who make this all possible enough!
INAUGURAL
NBC Charity Golf Day 2014
Our first-ever golf day, was held at the prestigious Romford Golf Club, and it was daunting. The organisation, the sourcing of raffle prizes, a speech, let alone the golf!!
We had 23 players on the day and raised £1,175!
NBC Charity Golf Day 2015
Back at Romford Golf Club for the 2nd time, starting to find our swing.
We had 26 golfers on the day and raised £1,300!
​
We even attracted a sponsor, who has supported NBC every year since. A huge thank you to Neil Wiltshire of Barrier AC.
NBC Charity Golf Day 2016
Romford was kind enough to host us once again in 2016, unfortunately, due to a few last-minute cancellations our numbers fell to 18.
However, as a result of the generosity of those in attendance, and an accidental locking of keys in a car which contained their golf clubs, a generous fee was paid to hire some clubs which formed part of the raffle and we still raised a healthy sum for the charity. Plus we remembered to take a photo of everyone!
We had 18 players on the day and raised £810!
NBC Charity Golf Day 2017
If it ain't broke.... back to Romford for our merry band in 2017.
We had 27 golfers on the day and raised £1,400!
Charity Golf Day 2018
The Romford course was immaculate and they are incredibly welcoming, so we returned for our 4th outing in 2018.
​
Glen had worked his magic and we smashed through our previous attendance best by some margin! In tandem, we had our best-ever prize haul, which gave way to even more generous donations.
We had 42 players on the day and raised £2,300!
NBC Charity Golf Day 2019
Our 6th Golf Day was a real success. The sun shined, golf was played (By most) and for the second time, we broke the £2k barrier for monies raised on the day.
We had 34 golfers on the day and raised £2,050!
NBC Charity Golf Day 2020
Early interest in the 7th NBC golf day, saw our numbers growing once again. Although this was the year of Covid, so unfortunately numbers fluctuated wildly right up to the day. We took the opportunity to relocate the day to an alternate course, namely South Essex Golf Club.,
​
We had 38 golfers and a super amount of £2,700 was raised,
NBC Charity Golf Day 2021
South Essex was an incredible host, so we returned for 2021 for the 8th NBC Golf Day. Emerging from Covid, this was a record-breaking year in terms of numbers.
​
We had 68 golfers and raised £2,640
​
NBC Charity Golf Day 2022
Well, that escalated. Blackmail or other dark arts, Glen did it again! Records across the board were smashed wide open as the day was by far the most successful.
​
Sponsorship, business fund matching and generosity were immense.
​
We had 72 golfers on the day and raised £6,345!
NBC Charity
Golf Day 2023
Well.... so big we could just about fit the picture on! Our 10th NBC Charity Golf Day and are biggest on all fronts. A colossal amount raised, with generosity on the day just leaving us lost for words. A cash raffle was held with a prize pot of £600 across 4 blind envelopes. A significant sum was raised in raffle tickets for this, then as each winner opened their envelope they donated it back to the charity.... speeeeeccchhhlessss!
​
We had 80 golfers with £8,395 raised! Wow!
NBC Charity Golf Day 2024
The 11th NBC Charity Golf Day was held on Friday, 6th September and was the biggest yet! 88 wonderful Golfers travelled from near and far to support the charity and play at an all-new venue for our Charity Golf Day, Warley Park Golf Club!
​
​Once again, we were incredibly fortunate to have received some wonderful gifts for both our raffle and secret auction, not to mention a massive potential prize donated by the amazing team at Cornerstone, sponsoring a Hole in One competition on the 18th with anyone who was able to get an illusive hole in one taking £10k!! Although there were some close contenders, sadly, no one secured the winnings. However, the Cornerstone efforts, entry monies raised and kind donations on the day significantly boosted the fundraising. An incredible company we will be eternally grateful to.
​
We were extremely lucky to have 2 amazing guests from Basildon Hospital. Faye from Mid & South Essex Hospitals Charity and Laura, Head of Neonates Nursing at Basildon University Hospital. Laura and Faye spoke to many of the golfers, and Laura gave a heartfelt speech to all attending. It meant the world and helped explain how the donations of both time and money have really made a difference, helping get more small babies home.
Including some phenomenally generous bids for silent auction prizes and multiple raffle tickets purchased by everyone in attendance (and friends and family at home), we smashed our fundraising target. Raising more than £11k.
Opposite are some of the companies and individuals who, without their fantastic support, our golf days would be nowhere near as successful. Thank you, you fantastic people!
