Organised by the building division team, the day brought together supply chain partners for an unforgettable day of golf, remembrance, and generosity.<\/p>\n<p>The event began with a welcome breakfast and briefing, followed by a minute\u2019s silence in honour of Paul. Golfers then took to the course in teams of four, facing friendly competition and fun challenges \u2013 including the popular \u2018Beat the Pro\u2019, all while supporting CRASH\u2019s vital work.<\/p>\n<p>In the evening, attendees enjoyed a three-course dinner, followed by a raffle and charity auction packed with exceptional prizes donated by VolkerFitzpatrick\u2019s generous supply chain. Standout auction items included fourballs at elite UK golf clubs such as the New Zealand Club and premier sporting events.<\/p>\n<p>Following the success of this year\u2019s event, the Paul Lane Memorial Golf Day has now raised over \u00a3135,000 since it began \u2013 a powerful testament to VolkerFitzpatrick\u2019s enduring commitment to CRASH through fundraising, Corporate Patronage, and active project involvement.<\/p>\n<p>The funds raised will go directly towards creating and refurbishing safe, caring environments for people who are homeless and for children and adults receiving care in hospices.<\/p>\n<p>CRASH extends heartfelt thanks to everyone at VolkerFitzpatrick and all who attended and supported this special day.<\/p>\n        <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"image-gallery\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        \n                <div class=\"image-gallery__slider\">\n            <div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n                                        <div class=\"image-gallery__slider__image swiper-slide\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.crash.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/45f49347-76b7-43c1-a63c-a5a7827cb8f6.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                    <span><\/span>\n                <\/div>\n\n                                <div class=\"image-gallery__slider__image swiper-slide\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.crash.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1b7276a6-db3d-4fd7-a83a-959b227af110.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                    <span><\/span>\n                <\/div>\n\n                                <div class=\"image-gallery__slider__image swiper-slide\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.crash.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/aed74a4a-7384-491b-a392-9744ccafc9a6.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                    <span><\/span>\n                <\/div>\n\n                                <div class=\"image-gallery__slider__image swiper-slide\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.crash.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1751885682347.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                    <span><\/span>\n                <\/div>\n\n                                        <\/div>\n                <div class=\"image-gallery__slider__navigation\">\n                <div id=\"image-gallery__slider__prev\" class=\"swiper-button-prev swiper-button\"><\/div>\n                <div id=\"image-gallery__slider__pagination\" class=\"swiper-pagination\"><\/div>\n                <div id=\"image-gallery__slider__next\" class=\"swiper-button-next swiper-button\"><\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<script>\n    var imageSlider = new Swiper('.image-gallery__slider', {\n    pagination: {\n        el: '#image-gallery__slider__pagination',\n        type: 'fraction',\n      },\n      navigation: {\n        nextEl: '#image-gallery__slider__next',\n        prevEl: '#image-gallery__slider__prev',\n      },\n    });\n  <\/script>\n  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":15292,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15287","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 -
