Celebrity Golf at Hanbury Manor

On Tuesday 8th July, I had the great pleasure to be asked by Result Marketing to attend Hanbury Manor and photograph the Celebrity Golf Classic. The tournament was held to raise funds for a wonderful charity - the Presidents Sporting Club and The Essex Disabled Sports Foundation.

The stars turned out in force.

John Conteh - former Light Heavyweight Champion of the World, much to their delight, joined the young sportsmen and women who were to benefit from the tournament, in games on the lawn at Hanbury Manor.

The Result Marketing Team shown above with former England (37 Caps) , Richmond and Wasps rugby player Jeff Probyn (rather fetching shorts) took the day very seriously. The warm up was highly entertaining......

.....as too was Jeff.

My mother-in-law was absolutely ecstatic to find that Mike Baldwin had not died - I explained that he was in fact an actor - Johnny Briggs MBE - but you know what soap addicts are like.

I have just taken over an allotment in Epping - Johnny insisted in giving me some very helpful tips on how to clear the long grass.....

......and deal with disappointments in life.

With Adger Brown entertaining them, you could hear one of the several First Choice Marquee teams chuckling their way down the fairways. Adger is described as one of the most versatile comedians on the mainstream circuit of cabaret.

Sir Henry Cooper OBE needs no introduction - a sporting legend.

Sir Henry is shown with the First Choice Marquee first team.

Following the tournament there was an evening meal, charity auction and presentation. It was great to put down my cameras for the first time that day and relax as a guest of Graham and Result Marketing.
