3rd Annual Golf Tournament
| This year, the Foundation held its third annual golf tournament. The event, which took place on Friday 4th June 2010 at Wells Golf Club, was a wonderful day and the sun even shone well into the evening. |
| There were no hole-in-ones on the day, but there were some pretty decent scores. Richard Barnes concentrates on his final putt on the 9th green. | Philip Ballan-Whitfield won two competitions - one for getting his ball nearest the pin on the 7th and another for finishing in the top four. |

Martin Ashton drives off at the 13th tee - he came a very respectable second overall winning a family portrait photo donated by Really Nice Photography. |
Philip Ballan-Whitfield looks to see where his drive off the 13th landed before walking off with two prizes - the best haul of the day.

Kevin Murphy accepts his first prize - a bottle of champagne which was kindly donated by Mendip Bottle. (The winners were allowed to choose their own prizes, so everyone went away happy.) |
