England Golf Trust is proud to announce a newly formed collaboration with the England Golf, establishing the Trust as the official charitable arm of the national governing body. This alignment will enhance England Golf Trust’s mission to support individuals facing the greatest barriers to accessing and enjoying the sport, while ensuring sustainable, community-centred impact across England.
Under this new collaboration, the England Golf Trust will work closely with England Golf to embed charitable support more deeply within the governing body’s broader development strategy.
England Golf Chief Operating Officer, Richard Flint said:
“We are delighted to formalise this collaboration with the England Golf Trust. Their experience and passion for helping young people to stay involved in golf aligns perfectly with our vision for a more inclusive and accessible sport. By working together more closely, we can ensure that financial barriers and other challenges do not prevent individuals from enjoying the sport we all love.”
The partnership represents a shared commitment to using golf as a positive force for social good. As part of the collaboration, the Trust will bring its charitable expertise to initiatives aimed at engaging under-represented communities, supporting young talent and ensuring opportunities exist for all who aspire to play. Fundraising and awareness-raising activities will also be aligned more strategically with England Golf’s events and outreach programmes to maximise impact.
England Golf Trust Chair, Moira Page, said:
“This collaboration marks an exciting new chapter for the Trust. Becoming the official charitable arm of England Golf allows us to extend our reach and deepen our impact. Together, we will work to remove barriers and create pathways that help more people access and enjoy golf, particularly those who need support the most.”
The Trust plays a crucial role in enabling young golfers and others in need to continue in the sport, fostering confidence, resilience and lifelong engagement. It does this entirely through voluntary fundraising and the generous support of individuals, clubs and organisations, as it receives no public funding.
The collaboration signals a renewed focus on inclusion and community at the heart of England Golf’s strategic objectives, reinforcing golf’s potential to deliver positive social outcomes and enrich lives across England.
