Children's charity Chin Up and Media 6 have joined forces to present a Children's Charity Golf day at De Vere Wychwood Park on Friday May 3.

Chin up, which was founded in 1994, was established to provide family breaks and respite care for children suffering from progressive or terminal illness in the North East and Cumbria.

The day will consist of 18 holes of golf in a four-ball, 3/4 handicap better ball format, with the best two scores counting on every hole.

A hot buffet, afternoon casino, charity auction, raffle and evening entertainment is also included in the price. What's more, there will be an array of prizes on offer.

Anyone recording a hole-in-one could receive a £20,000 BMW, a holiday in Portugal, a weekend at the Belfry or a new set of Callaway clubs.

There are prizes for first, second, third and last place, longest drive and nearest the pin competitions and a nine-hole putting contest, with the winner inheriting a £200 Ping putter.

A team of four-players will cost £300. Two-balls - who will be paired with another couple - can also enter for the price of £150.

For more information or to register a team, contact Media 6 on 01744 75915159.
