2015 RBA Charity Golf Day

Another successful RBA Charity Golf Day 

The seventh RBA Wealth Management Annual Charity Golf Day took place on Friday 26th June at Trentham Golf Club, Stoke-On-Trent. RBA Wealth Management, a team of financial planning and wealth management specialists, based in Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, has recorded another successful Charity Golf Day raising in excess of £4000.00 for MIND Charity. 

MIND believe no one should have to face a mental health problem alone. Whether suffering from stress, depression or in crisis Mind are on the doorstep, on the end of the phone and online. They will listen, give support and advice and fight your corner. They believe everyone with a mental health problem should be treated fairly, positively and with respect.

The British summer weather was typical of this country, we saw sunshine and rain but it didn’t stop play! The beautiful views and challenging 18-hole course at Trentham Golf club provided an excellent experience for RBA’s team and 40 guests who participated in the charity event this year. The day went exceptionally well and RBA would like to thank all of those who took part on the day and their clients, who have been extremely generous with their donations.
