The Automatic Door Suppliers Association (ADSA) marked its 40th anniversary year with another successful charity golf day at Branston Golf & Country Club.
31 teams – 124 golfers in total – teed off, while a further 35 delegates joined the daytime conference and 180 guests attended the evening dinner.
This year, the sporting fixture was reportedly combined with CPD sessions for non-players, which included an HR briefing from Sue Hatton, of Pickerings Solicitors alongside industry-focused updates.
Ken Price, Managing Director, ADSA said: “Over the years, the bid to win the ADSA Cup has become increasingly competitive but people showing up in numbers and taking part is ultimately what makes the day so successful.
“That’s why we decided that the team finishing last should also be winners, with an extra donation to their chosen charity.”
In total the 2025 event reportedly raised £8,500 for a range of deserving charities.
ADSA reported that All Round Securities, from Bolton, took first place and nominated the Royal British Legion, which will receive £2,000.
RTR Services, of Wakes Colne, Essex, finished last but reportedly walked away as the ‘losing’ winners, with £500 for the Huntington’s Disease Association.
Other beneficiaries are said to include the Lighthouse Construction Industry Charity, which supports mental health and wellbeing initiatives aimed at preventing suicide among young people working in construction, the Motor Neurone Disease Association, West Midlands Air Ambulance, Golfantics and St Giles Hospice which will share £4,000 between them.
