On Wednesday June 2nd the Redgrave & Pinsent Classic was held by the charity SPARKS at Harleyford Golf Club, Bucks
The organisers were kind enough to allow me to ask the celebrity golfers to sign Beanies and Chubbleys
Therefore I decided to donate a portion of the proceeds of the sale of these signed items to SPARKS
as well as to Cancer Research UK
