18 teams representing various businesses and organisations in Nottingham took part in the event: Actons solicitors, Air IT, Business Initiation Grants, CEMA, Legal Pod, Evolve Consultants, Foremost Security, Gas Container Services, Inside Out, Jamieson Christie, Pedigree Automotive Solutions, Resin Surfaces, Smooth Radio, Turner & Townsend; UHY Hacker Young and Urban Village Property Investments. Through a combination of sponsorship, a raffle and entry fees, the event also raised over £1,000 for the charity Parkinson’s UK Nottingham Branch.

The Nottingham City Business Club Golf Day was first competed for in 1929 but stopped in 1982.  It was re-introduced in 2011 and since then it has been won by teams from UHY Hacker Young, CEMA, Sherwood Place Wealth Management and Towergate Risk Solutions.

“The event has become increasingly popular with it being sold out in March this year,” said Nic Elliott, president of the Nottingham City Business Club.  “Everyone really enjoyed it and it was great to raise money for Parkinson’s UK Nottingham Branch too.”

Sponsors of the event were Air IT, Deborah Labbate Consultancy, Jamie Christie Wealth Management and Pedigree Automotive Solutions.

Deborah Labbate co-organiser of the event with Trevor Harris, both former presidents of the club, said “Since re-introducing the charity golf day to the Club’s calendar after finding the trophy in 2011, I’m delighted to see the day go from strength to strength.  It’s been a pleasure to organise the day and raise funds too.”
