If you read last month’s All Things Business magazine, you’d have read about the first of two charity golfing days which took place supporting the work of the charity ‘We Mind – and Kelly Matters’. The first Big Tee-Off as it is known took place at Overstone Park in Northamptonshire in June – followed a short while later by a second event at Pavenham Golf Club in Bedfordshire. Teams of like-minded golfers from the area came together to support the charity and enjoy a day’s networking and friendly sport. 'All Things Business – The Podcast' was there too, racing around in a golf buggy rigged with microphones to record the golfers as they went from tee to green – sometimes via the bunker rather than the fairway!
