Callander Golf Club has shown its appreciation for local NHS workers, who have worked bravely through the COVID-19 crisis, by offering ten free memberships.

The club’s committee revealed they were committed to recognising the incredible efforts of NHS staff in recent months and have decided to offer ten free memberships for NHS staff joining the club for the first time to do just that.

The free memberships will be offered on a first come first served basis to the first ten local NHS workers to submit a membership application, which is available by emailing [email protected]. Applicants must live within the FK postcode area.

If the offer is oversubscribed, eligible players who miss out on free membership will be able to join at a reduced rate of just £150.

“We all owe so much to the NHS in recent months,” said Bob Harvey, the club captain alongside Mary Harvey.
