Cope Foundation Golf Classic

People supported by Cope Foundation will be joining teams of golfers and taking to the course this summer to raise funds to empower people with an intellectual disability and/or autism.

Cope Foundation’s Golf Classic takes place at Lee Valley Golf and Country Club on the 9th and 10th of June. It’s the 26th year of the event which is supported by O’Flynn Exhams Solicitors.

The event is one of Cope Foundation’s biggest fundraising initiatives, generating much-needed funds for the Cork-based charity. Last year’s Golf Classic raised over €59,000. The organisation supports 2,800 people with an intellectual disability and/or autism to live ‘Your Life, Your Way’.
 
Micheál Ó Mulláin, Partner at O’Flynn Exhams Solicitors says: “We are delighted to be part of Cope Foundation’s annual Golf Classic fundraiser. The Golf Classic is always a great day out and we would encourage the business community in Cork to register teams and support this incredible Cork charity.”

Ailbhe Barrett, who is supported by Cope Foundation adds: “I have been playing golf for a long time. I really enjoy it, I used to go to the driving range in Blarney quite a bit. I took a break from golf for a while, but I’m back playing now and I love it.”
 
Golfers are in with a chance of winning a 100% Electric Peugeot e2008 SUV in the Hole in One Competition, kindly sponsored by Johnson & Perrott Motor Group. There will also be a ‘Nearest The Pin’ Competition sponsored by Carbery Group, a ‘Longest Drive’ Competition sponsored by First South Credit Union Ltd., and goodie bags sponsored by Lidl.
