Golf Challenge Fundraiser
On Friday 11 May at 1pm there will be a Golf Challenge at Bushey Hall Golf Club organised by local resident Craig Ihlenfeldt’s company. All proceeds from the day will go to Playskill. Cost is �45 for 18 holes and includes bacon rolls on arrival, with a meal afterwards. There will be a hole-in-one completion on the 9th hole with a �250 prize. To book a place call Mark on 0845 130 9436 or 07770 888598.
Playskill was started by local paediatric physiotherapist Andrea Clarke, who lives in Tower Hill. It is a special parent and child group which helps pre-school children with physical disabilities. Debbie Hughes, a speech and language therapist from Croft End Road, also helps with the group.
Playskill was officially opened last June by the Mayor of Watford, Councillor Dorothy Thornhill. The group meets in the Le Marie centre on St Albans Road. Andrea was able to set up Playskill with funding from Scope, UNLTD (the funding body of the Millennium Committee), and over �1000 raised by Jo Parish of Bovingdon running in the Marathon. This year the group won a further �7000 from the Local Network Fund but it is in need of more money to support its work. If you would like to know more about Playskill and the help it can provide, contact Andrea on 01442 834438 or 07890 267722.
