Members of the Ipswich ‘Tru7 Group’ Witches team visited Seckford Golf Club last week to support the charity “Fore” Get Me Not Golf.
The charity is dedicated to supporting those living with dementia so they can continue enjoying the sport they love. Through their dementia friendly golf sessions they provide a welcoming and accessible environment for all.
Founded in 2022 and created by Tony Pennock and Wendy Chard it has shown that golf can greatly enhance the quality of life for those living with dementia.
Their initiative blends physical activity, mental stimulation, and social interaction in a safe, adapted setting. At the same time, it helps support essential research into dementia.
Ritchie Hawkins, Danny King, Adam Ellis, Jordan Jenkins and Dan Thompson all joined last week’s session alongside former Witch Cameron Heeps and rider and commentator Adam Roynon. Trevor Jones, a former Witches rider in the 1970s, is a regular at the sessions and enjoyed chatting with the class of 2025.
Sky Sports also recently visited the club to film for a feature which was played out on their live golf coverage on World Alzheimer’s Day which can be watched here.
