Huge thanks to those who supported our 7th Annual Golf day!
Last Friday, six teams from local organisations across Oxfordshire took to the greens of Frilford Heath Golf Course to raise funds to support those affected by brain injury across the Oxfordshire area.
Blanchford Building Supplies, Royds Withy King, Millar Cameron, CFG Law, The Oxford Business Network and HSBC enjoyed a day packed with golf, starting with morning 9-hole Texas Scramble and afternoon 18-hole Stableford and ended with a live charity auction and a delicious two-course carvery in aid of local charity Oxford Head Injury Services. The day raised a total of £1,484! Without their support, we couldn’t do the work that we provide.
The results of the day:
Overall
Oxford Head Injury Services Champion 2018: Mark Whittaker (42 points)
2nd Place Individual: Russell Porter (39 points)
3rd Place Individual: Barry Ross (38 points)
Morning Texas Scramble

It is with great sadness that we have to report the sudden and unexpected death of our longest serving Trustee Mrs Vivienne Taylor. Vivienne passed away whilst on holiday with her husband in the Mediterranean.
We send our sincerest condolences to Michael and the Taylor family at this most difficult time.
Vivienne will be hugely missed by us all at Oxford Head Injury Services. She was a wonderful, vibrant and generous person, who gave years of dedicated service to our organization and our clients. Her contributions were always energised and positive. Vivienne was a lady who’s light shone brightly.
We will miss you.
