Dreams come true at
local charity golf day The annual Newman Charity Golf Day saw 17 teams from businesses in Kent, Sussex and Surrey head to the Nevill Golf Club in Tunbridge Wells – and raise an amazing £5,500 for small local charity Taylor Made Dreams, who help children with life limiting illnesses and their families get the support they need during their diffi cult journey. Competitions throughout the event included
nearest the pin in 2 shots, get on the green, nearest the pin on all par 3’s, longest drive and yellow ball team and overall team. The day rounded off with a three-course dinner and an auction. There were several generous offers of trips in supercars from participants to make dreams come true for one young Taylor Made soldier to tick off his bucket list. • Make a date in your diary for next year’s event, which takes place on Friday 27th September 2019.

WEALD-ING SUPPORT!
The villages of the Weald have joined forces to address the growing mental health crisis facing children, young people and families. Ten local churches and 12 schools have collectively raised £12,000 to fund professional children’s counselling and parent support services, which will be provided by local charity Fegans. Meanwhile, a growing
group of locals have offered to be trained as parent support volunteers in their communities. Fegans are working with the schools, training parent support volunteers, and three children in each of the 12 schools will be able to benefi t from the counselling. Parent support volunteers will be working across the Weald to support parents who are having a diffi cult time.
The initiative – now branded
The Weald Family Hub – has won the support of Tunbridge Wells MP Greg Clark (pictured), who said: “Providing better mental
health services for young people is an issue that I feel extremely strongly about so I was delighted to hear about The Weald Family Hub…One of the most important things for families with children experiencing a mental health condition is to get speedy help to ensure the problem doesn’t develop into something more serious. The plan by The Weald Family Hub to provide professional counselling services to schools and support to parents and carers is just what’s needed.”
