When 3 bereaved fathers come together, bonded by their shared experience of Baby Loss, amazing things can happen. When Golf is added to the mix, the possibilities are endless. On Friday 14 June 2024, Kris Lynch, Ben Seabrook and Mike Harris joined forces at Prince’s Golf Club, in Sandwich, Kent, to undertake an all day Golf challenge in support of Sands. Sands works to save babies' lives and ensure that anyone affected by pregnancy or baby loss gets the support and care they need, in a way that works for them, for as long as they need it. Through their fundraising efforts and thanks to the wonderfully kind donations of family, friends and followers, the boys raised over £1,800 for Sands. This podcast episode is a raw, emotional and vulnerable account of three Fathers’ grief. It also a humorous, self deprecating and often slapstick account of three average Golfers having spent 14 hours trying to whack a small white ball into a tiny hole, multiple times over until their bodies and minds scream “No More!!!”.
