The Joy of Accessible Golf: A Visit from The Golf Trust to Our Newick Hub

 

At Headway Sussex, we’re always seeking new ways to provide meaningful and enjoyable experiences for our clients living with brain injuries. Recently, we were thrilled to welcome The Golf Trust to our Newick Hub, bringing with them specialised golfing equipment to ensure that golf could be enjoyed by all in a fully accessible and inclusive way.

The atmosphere throughout the day was filled with laughter, smiles, and a wonderful sense of achievement as our clients took to the course. For many of them, this was their first time trying golf, and it was an experience that resonated deeply. The adaptive equipment provided by The Golf Trust allowed everyone to take part, regardless of mobility challenges or other physical limitations.

The Benefits of Golf for Brain Injury Recovery

Golf offers a surprising range of benefits for individuals living with brain injuries. While it may seem like a leisurely sport, it’s a brilliant way to engage both the body and the mind. Here are some of the key benefits:

Bringing More Golf to Headway Sussex

The success of this event has inspired us to make golf a regular activity at our Hubs. We are excited to announce that we’ll soon be raising funds to acquire our own set of specialised golfing equipment, so we can offer frequent golf sessions to more of our clients across our Hubs.

By securing this equipment, we’ll be able to provide tailored sessions that meet the individual needs of those we support, ensuring that more people can experience the benefits that golf has to offer.

How You Can Help

We couldn’t provide opportunities like this without the generosity of our supporters. We’ll be sharing more details soon about how you can get involved in our fundraising efforts to bring accessible golf to Headway Sussex. Every contribution, no matter how big or small, will help us to continue enriching the lives of those living with brain injuries.

Stay tuned for updates, and thank you for being part of the journey. Together, we can ensure that the joy and therapeutic benefits of golf are available to all who need it.

💚 Thank you for your ongoing support! 💚
