01/06/2016 – CWD sponsors a charity golf day for the Wiseman Trust

On 20 May 2016, CWD sponsored a charity golf day for the Wiseman Trust, a charity very close to the heart of our founder, Peter Coyle. The Wiseman Trust funds the research of Professor Mark Kilby at the Birmingham Women’s Foundation Trust Hospital into Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome – a condition which affects (and more often than not kills) identical twins sharing the same placenta in the womb. After 21 years of medical research funding, the Wiseman Trust is edging ever closer to finding a cure for this fatal disease. The charity’s mission is to raise money through having fun! This golf day was the first of four events this year; with a Quiz Night, a Poker Night and a Race Night to follow.

After 18 holes of very ‘hilly’ golf at the wonderful Harewood Downs Golf Club, and a similar volume of San Miguels at the 19th, CWD’s team was in need of some medical treatment too! A fantastic day was had by all, so many thanks to everybody who contributed to another £7,000 of important medical research.
