Traction Finance have been appointed lead sponsors to help Belfast Solicitors’ Association (BSA) launch a 2017 annual Golf Day with mental health in mind and a very special prize on offer.

The BSA’s chosen charity Inspire (formerly Niamh), one of the longest established mental health and learning disability charities in Northern Ireland, will benefit from the Malone Golf Club–based event.

As an extra attraction Traction have even offered a brand new Fiat Abarth 595 convertible as a prize for a hole in one competition on the day.

Speaking at the launch of the event Traction Managing Director Paul McGuire explained: “We’re proud to support Belfast Solicitors’ Association because, as a local SME ourselves, we want to recognise and celebrate the great contribution of Association members to our community as well as the valuable work of the Association itself.

“That’s why we’ll be on hand to not just enjoy the day together but to help support fundraising for inspire. We hope that the car we are providing really encourages participation – one lucky golfer could be driving in more ways than one at the event!”

Belfast Solicitors’ Association encouraged people to sign up for what is sure to be a most enjoyable occasion. Chair Eoghan McKenna said: “We in the BSA are anxious to assist our 2017 charity partner, Inspire, in their crucial endeavours in the times ahead and we are appreciative to all for their assistance in doing so. Our golf day at Malone is always a fantastic day on a great course and all monies raise will go to such a great cause. I also have to thank Traction Finance for raising the competitive spirit with the added incentive of a convertible for a hole in one.”

The event will raise funds to help Inspire with their focus on promoting wellbeing for all through its mental health, learning disability and workplace/student counselling services across Ireland.

Nuala Dalcz, Director of External Affairs at inspire expressed her gratitude. “This golf day marks the first event of the BSA and inspire charity relationship. We are so grateful to all in the Association for their support and commitment to mental wellbeing. Not only are they helping raise much needed funds but they are also starting a conversation about mental health and encouraging others to do the same. A huge thanks to Paul and the team and Traction also for such a generous gesture.”

Inspire’s Mental Health and Learning Disability services provide community–based day support, accommodation and advocacy services in communities across Ireland. Their Workplaces and Students services also provide expert advice and counselling support to over 1 million people.
