Applied Materials Charity Golf event, Mt Juliet, June 13th

The Applied Materials Charity Golf event will take place this year at The Mount Juliet Championship Course, Thomastown, Co. Kilkenny, Ireland on Thursday 13^th June, 2013.  

It is IAA's third year with Applied Materials Ireland as its beneficiary charity. In the first two years of our partnership, this golf event raised a total of €85,000 for Irish Autism Action.

The cost to enter a team of 4 in this year's event is €900.

The proceeds from this year’s event will be used to run workshops focusing on 2 areas:  social skills programmes for children with autism and support programmes for siblings of children with autism, who are often very affected by their sibling’s diagnosis. We hope to support in the region of 200 children with these workshops.

To book a team, or for further information, please contact Colette on 044 9371654 or emailcolette@autismireland.ie
