Host a golf tournament for Independent Age

Keen golfer? Take on a golfing challenge with your local club and raise money for older people.

Start by asking your local club to host the tournament for you. Promote your golf day by asking local businesses to sponsor prizes for participants and contact local media outlets to advertise your event. After the tournament has finished, you could host a dinner party, with awards for the best golfer of the day to encourage more fundraising.

Why support Independent Age?

The money you raise will support people like Veronica. Veronica is 82 years old and lives in the Southeast of England. She called our Helpline as she was struggling with rising electricity bills. Veronica was relying on extra jumpers when she was cold instead of turning on the heating, to keep down costs.

The Helpline helped Veronica to understand more about the money she was entitled to. Now, Veronica is receiving pension credit. This is a crucial top up for her income.

By fundraising for Independent Age, you will provide a support system for older people going through difficult times.
