TOPGOLF TEAMS WITH RAINBOW TRUST TO SUPPORT FAMILIES CARING FOR CHILDREN WITH SERIOUS ILLNESSES

London, January 2018: Global sports entertainment leader Topgolf® is thrilled to announce its 2018 U.K. charity partner, Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity, an inspiring organisation that supports families caring for children with serious illnesses.

Throughout the year, each Topgolf U.K. venue will be fundraising through a series of activities, events and promotional offers. Topgolf will also be donating £1 to Rainbow Trust from the sale of every Double Smokehouse burger. All funds raised will go toward sponsoring a Rainbow Trust Family Support Worker who provides support to entire families and helps them make the most of their time together. Each Family Support Worker provides practical and emotional support for families for as long as it is needed.

Oonagh Goodman, Director of Fundraising and Marketing at Rainbow Trust said: “Our sincere thanks go to Topgolf UK for selecting Rainbow Trust as its Charity of the Year 2018. We are really looking forward to working with Topgolf associates and guests and making this a hugely successful partnership. Topgolf has set an incredible fundraising target of £42,300, which is amazing. The money will fund one of our expert Family Support Workers who help families with a seriously ill child, at home, in hospital and in the community, to make life a little easier.”

Claire Kendrick, Head of Marketing at Topgolf UK says; “Rainbow Trust is dedicated to supporting families during the toughest of times. One of Topgolf’s core values is caring, and this new partnership enables us to demonstrate this by supporting Rainbow Trust’s invaluable service to families in need. Topgolf is a family oriented company that understands the importance of community and creating memories. We look forward to being able to support the Rainbow Trust over the year and help make a positive impact to some deserving families.”
