What a way to kick off our 30th anniversary celebrations other than in the Algarve led by our new Golf Ambassador Lee Mears. Wooden Spoon voyaged to Portugal on the 25th April for our first 2 day golf tournament at the Le Meridien Penina Hotel Golf & Resort. The event successfully raised funds for Spoon and we hope to host another alike in the near future. A huge thank you is in order to Arthur J Gallagher International, without their generosity this event would not have been as successful as it was. Further special thanks are owed to our rugby players Lee Mears, Harry Ellis, Shaun Perry, David Trick, Paul Burke and Jeremy Pugh who made this an event to remember. Here are a few words from David Trick about the weekend.
