Dan Walker Charity Golf Day 2018

After some early mizzle yesterday morning, Hallamshire Golf Club in Sheffield again showed its colurs in glorious light for the 5th annual Dan Walker Charity Golf Day 2018.  Often known as the Walker Cup (not that one!), it attracts a wide range of celebrities and sports people to raise money for the Sheffield Childrens Hospital.  Early figures are somewhere about £40,000 which is a fantastic sum to help out a wonderful institution.

Some photos from the day....
