THE LOWRY TEES OFF A CHARITY GOLF DAY
The Lowry Trust is seeking support for an inaugural Charity Golf Day on Monday 4 July at Dunham Forest Golf & Country Club, Cheshire as part of a development programme to raise funds for community & education work and increase awareness of The Lowry’s facilities and cultural programme of events.
Since opening five years ago, The Lowry, a stunning waterfront home for the arts has welcomed in excess of 4 million visitors and occupies a prominent position in the cultural life of the region.
The Lowry is inviting professionals in the North West business community to enter a team of 4 to enjoy golf, lunch and dinner for a corporate package of £600, which includes an advertisement in the souvenir programme. Non-golfers can also provide support in the form of sponsorship or providing prizes and donations for the raffle, all of which will be acknowledged in the programme.
James Wallace, a Trustee of The Lowry, spearheading the event commented, “We’re extremely proud of our artistic achievements and believe we’re the only venue outside London offering such an exciting and dynamic programme of events. We want to continue presenting a huge variety of shows and exhibitions but are especially committed to developing our education and community work. We thought that golf was an excellent social sport with wide appeal in the business community as well as providing a perfect platform for networking.”
The funds raised from this Charity Golf Day will enable The Lowry to significantly expand its creative activities and projects for thousands of individuals, organisations, communities and constituencies of Salford and Greater Manchester.
