The day is held in aid of Midlands Air Ambulance, a charity we’ve proudly supported for well over two decades. Since 1991, MAAC has responded to more than 76,000 missions, making them one of the busiest air ambulance services in the UK. Despite their lifesaving work, they receive no Government or National Lottery funding. With £16 million needed annually to keep their three aircraft operational, fundraising events like these are absolutely vital. Last year we raised £6,500, can we beat that this year?

We welcome individuals and teams of four to take part for just £85 per person. This cost also covers breakfast, an evening meal and a charitable donation. No matter your golfing ability, you’re invited to swing into action for a great cause!

What’s in store?

Kickstart the day with bacon rolls and hot drinks, while enjoying the chance to network with fellow golfers.

Tee off for an exciting 18-hole Stableford competition on a fantastic course.

Round off the day with a drink and hot dinner at The Fox Inn, Bransford.

Take part in our raffle and silent auction for a chance to win some incredible prizes!

This is more than just a day of golf – it’s an opportunity to connect, compete, and contribute to a truly life-changing cause.

We’d love to have you with us – sign up today and help keep this incredible charity flying high!

In this electrifying stage adaptation of George Orwell’s Animal Farm, The Courtyard’s Senior Youth Theatre expose the brutal mechanics of power and revolution.

When the animals of Manor Farm overthrow their oppressive owner, they dream of a life of freedom. Little do they know that the pursuit of equality often breeds new forms of tyranny. As the pigs gradually assume leadership, their revolutionary ideals slowly corrupt. Led by the cunning Napoleon, they manipulate language, rewrite history, and betray the revolution’s original principles.

Through razor-sharp performances, this next generation of young talent will go on a gripping exploration of power, corruption and the fragility of hope.

Animal Farm speaks to the heart of today’s world, where promises of change can quickly turn into a cycle of manipulation and control.

A daring, thought-provoking modern retelling that will leave you questioning who holds the reins in a society that claims to be free…

Courtyard Productions Present
Wuthering Heights
By Emily Bronte
Directed by David Durant

Thursday 2 – Saturday 4 October

Love turns savage on the Yorkshire moors.

Passion, obsession, and revenge collide in this fierce new staging of Emily Brontë’s masterpiece. Watch as Heathcliff and Cathy’s devastating love story ignites the stage, brought to life by a unique ensemble of professional actors performing alongside the brightest talents from our local community and Youth Theatre.

When a mysterious orphan boy is taken in by the Earnshaw family, no one could predict how his intense connection with young Cathy would unleash decades of passion, betrayal, and vengeance. Their destructive love affair haunts two generations, poisoning everyone it touches. As storms rage across the moors, dark secrets surface, and long-buried emotions explode into life.

This daring new production cuts straight to the heart of Brontë’s gothic masterpiece, revealing its raw power. Our exceptional cast blends seasoned professionals with fresh local talent to create something truly unique – a Wuthering Heights for today’s audience that captures all the wild spirit of the original.

Some loves burn too hot to survive. Some stories refuse to die.

Join us for a theatrical storm you won’t forget.

Age guidance: Recommended 11+ (some violent moments and scenes of alcohol abuse)
