Forever Remembered<br />

<strong>Wigan</strong> Golf Club will<br />

hold a charity golf day in<br />

memory of a <strong>Wigan</strong> lad.<br />

On Friday, July 20, <strong>Wigan</strong> Golf<br />

Club will welcome 164 golfers to<br />

a charity golf day in memory of<br />

David Hughes, 32, who passed<br />

away on Tuesday, May 8.<br />

In February Dave received a new<br />

heart, but due to complications<br />

he remained in the Freeman hospital in Newcastle –<br />

the specialist unit for Dave’s condition.<br />

Carl Robinson, director from <strong>Wigan</strong> Golf Club<br />

said: “Tony Sedgwick, Dave’s father-in-law and his<br />

brother-in-law Danny Sedgwick are well respected<br />

members of WGC.<br />

“We hope the day brings<br />

awareness of the tragic<br />

condition families have to face<br />

and showcase the amazing<br />

hardworking, dedication of the<br />

medical team at the Freeman<br />

Hospital.”<br />

Louise wants the day to celebrate<br />

Dave’s life and promote the<br />

importance of organ donation.<br />

Accompanied by son George, she will ensure he’s<br />

proud of his daddy and Dave’s legacy will continue<br />

for years to come.<br />

She’d also like to thank <strong>Wigan</strong> Golf Club for closing<br />

the golf course for the day, to everyone attending,
