On course for success

A WEST Midlands golf club has invested £1.6m in refurbishing its clubhouse to secure the future of the venue for its members.

Supported by a £500,000 loan from Lloyds Bank, Walmley Golf Club in Sutton Coldfield has improved facilities, with a full refit of the main building, the refurbishment of changing rooms, and the creation of new bars. The balcony has also been extended out and around the end of the building to provide views across the course and New Hall Valley. And the addition of modern energy-saving measures, including sensor lighting, a new boiler, and insulation, will reduce the club’s maintenance and operational bills; while a lift and refurbished disabled toilets will make the space more accessible.
