UKKO launch kicks off with Sir Geoff Hurst

On Wednesday 1st July we sponsored one of our first events, the LINC charity golf day at Lilleybrook Golf Club, an Alistair MacKenzie designed course on the outskirts of Cheltenham.

LINC - The Leukaemia & Intensive Chemotherapy Fund - is a Cotswolds based charity and a worthy cause as we're sure you'll agree.

We were also lucky enough to be playing with the legendary England footballer Sir Geoff Hurst which was a fitting way to launch our British brand.

The other members of the team were businessman Terry Hopley (who used to co-own a golf course in Australia with Ian Baker-Finch) and UKKO sponsored Pro Steve Smith, who's the Head UrbanGolf professional.

More on Steve soon, but even though we didn't win(!), it was an awesome round and one we're privileged to have been involved in. Pics below.
