Former England goalkeeper David Seaman will be hosting his seventh Safe Hands Charity Golf Classic at Parque da Floresta resort near Lagos between July 10 and 13.
Bradley Walsh together with other personalities from the world of sport and entertainment will be coming together to play golf and raise money for the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK.
The programme includes a two-day golf competition with 22 teams of three players plus one celebrity competing on the Par 71 course at Parque da Floresta.
After the golf there will be plenty of entertainment for those participating with themed evenings on Thursday and Friday. Prizes will be presented on Saturday evening to the winners of the golf competition and after the gala dinner there will be a charity auction.
Each year David Seaman chooses a new charity to support and last year the Safe Hands golf tournament raised over 150, 000 pounds for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust. In the last six years more than 750,000 pounds has been raised for various charities.
This year numerous celebrites will be coming to the Algarve to support the Safe Hands charity fund. Retired footballers including David Platt and 1966 World Cup winner Martin Peters, Bradley's fellow Coronation Street actor Johnny Briggs, TV presenters Kirsty Gallacher and Ben Shephard, singer Gareth Gates and former international rugby player Kyran Braken will all be present at the event.
The Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK raises money in the UK for research into bowel cancer and public awareness of the disease.
David’s own family have been affected by this form of cancer and David said: “We have supported this charity on two previous occasions. This is not only because I have the greatest respect for Bobby Moore but also because my wife Debbie lost her mum to bowel cancer, the same disease from which Bobby tragically died.”
