Manak Solicitors joins the nation in mourning the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
It was a privilege to raise money for our chosen charity, Charity Angels, for the 2022 edition of the Manak Golf Day. This UK fundraising group supports smaller and local initiatives, the one for our event being Against Breast Cancer.
“Weather forecasters merely forecast rain to keep everyone else off of the golf course.
There couldn’t have been a more accurate statement when we were forecast dreary weather for the entirety of Friday. Instead we were greeted by a vibrant autumn morning for the 3rd Manak Golf Day. Dubbed the ‘Manak Masters’, the latest instalment was orchestrated by Manak Solicitors and warmly hosted once again by Chelsfield Lakes Golf Centre.
The morning started with breakfast rolls and water being given to each guest, equipping them with our custom limited Manak Solicitor’s golf balls, followed by group photos after everybody had eaten.
One hole down, seventeen more to go.
The event was an exciting 18 holes of the Lakes course, with multiple awards up for grabs, including the Longest Drive and Nearest to Pin. Followed by a jaw-dropping trick shot show by Kevin Carpenter (http://kcgolfshow.com), who decided to bring not just a golf club but a bike, a ladder, and a unicycle onto the driving range.
When all the golfing was done, and everybody caddied their way back to the clubhouse, our guests of honour were readied and set up to deliver their presentations to a room of 70 attendees.
First, Stephanie Harrison, Charity Angels committee member and the manager for My Sevenoaks Community, rallied the room with her speech dedicated to Charity Angels and her supporting charity, Against Breast Cancer, which funds research into secondary breast cancer. This was then proceeded by Steph handing out the awards, including the Winner and Runner-up prizes and a raffle with all the ticket funds going to Against Breast Cancer as a donation.
Then came Andrew Eyre, CEO at The Stag Theatre in Sevenoaks. Praised not only the event but Manak Solicitors specifically for assisting The Stag during the lockdown period. He concluded the speech emphasising that theatres are still in a disadvantageous position and left the stage with a toast to Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, who passed peacefully a day prior.
Surinder Singh Manak thanked all our guests and wished that they’d enjoyed themselves, already casting one eye on welcoming everyone back in 2023. A 2-course meal was served before glasses were raised to the sky as a wonderful day concluded with large cheers all around.
The Manak Masters was our most successful Golf Day to date, with over £3,500 raised for Against Breast Cancer during the raffle ceremony. We couldn’t be prouder.
Here’s to the next Manak Golf Day!
