Summary
Lytham Green Drive Golf Club acquired a Paragolfer, an all-terrain mobility vehicle that allows wheelchair users with lower limb disabilities to stand and swing a golf club. Alistair Bonham, a member who was paralyzed in a skiing accident and hadn't played since January 2025, was able to use the device to return to the sport he loves. The club's initiative helps disabled golfers regain access to the game.
