Story

Thanks for visiting our page. We are raising money for the British Heart Foundation and would be so grateful for your support.

We (Crawford Anderson-Dillon, Dave Kerr, Chris Conway and Barry Ross) are taking part in the Longest Day challenge, but with a twist. The aim is to be the first group to complete a round of golf in each of the four home countries in a single day and therefore, also the fastest to do it. We are awaiting confirmation from Guinness World Records to confirm that they are going to recognise our efforts.

We are all part of the RACDG https://www.instagram.com/racdg_europe/ https://racdg.com/ and are doing this in memory of a long time "flocker" George Brown, who suffered a cardiac arrest and sadly passed away.

We are going to be undertaking our challenge by playing at:

We would like to say a huge thanks to each of the golf courses for their generous hospitality and time for such a great cause. Thank you also to the members for their patience!

We are going to be doing our best to document the day and our updates, so please stay in touch and get involved at https://twitter.com/_Forenations or https://www.instagram.com/forenationschallenge/

Keep an eye out for us at the following places Beef's Golf Club https://www.golfmonthly.com/ https://cookiejargolf.com/

Also, a huge thanks to Puma Golf for their support https://uk.puma.com/uk/en

The BHF has helped halve the number of people dying from heart and circulatory disease in the UK but sadly every day hundreds of people lose their lives. It's only thanks to support from people like us that the BHF can create new treatments and discover new cures. £24 could pay for two hours of research by an early career scientist, but every pound helps so please give what you can to help me hit my target. Thanks!
