CHAIR PROFILE: THE NATIONAL GOLF CENTRE AT WOODHALL SPA LINCOLNSHIRE, UK CHAIR OF THE NATIONAL GOLF CENTRE AT WOODHALL SPA This is a unique opportunity for an experienced leader to become the Chair of The National Golf Centre (NGC), which is regarded as one of the best golf facilities in the UK. The new incumbent will follow the retirement of a 17-year tenured Chair who has been instrumental in delivering a significant period of development in the facilities, operating standards, and fiscal growth, leading to self-generated investment into the site of some £10M. The board is looking for an experienced Chair to lead the board of Woodhall Spa Golf Management (WSGM), the company tasked with operating the NGC and a wholly owned subsidiary of England Golf. They will oversee the construction and reopening of a new clubhouse and explore further opportunities to develop the NGC within the overall aims of England Golf.

ABOUT THE NATIONAL GOLF CENTRE AT WOODHALL SPA The National Golf Centre at Woodhall Spa is the home of amateur golf in England and provides a first-class coaching environment for the National Squads, as well as excellent golfing facilities available to all players, whatever their handicap. The National Golf Centre encompasses two 18-hole golf courses, The Hotchkin and The Bracken. The practice facilities represent some of the finest in Europe and include: a pitch and putt course, two short-game areas, a 16-bay Toptracer driving range, two indoor coaching and club-fit studios, a dedicated putting studio, a gym, a physio room, and a squad room. Currently, the academy hosts all England-based national squad training, most regional squad training, and other elite coaching groups, which include overseas, warm-weather training. There is also a strong commercial coaching element being developed with the purpose of being a true centre of excellence that incorporates the latest developments in sports science. The Hotchkin Course at Woodhall Spa has been privately owned by the Hotchkin family since 1919. In 1995, the English Golf Union (the then governing body of English men's amateur golf), acquired the golf course at Woodhall Spa and associated facilities to create a National Golf Centre. The Hotchkin is a renowned championship golf course that has consistently been rated in the world's top 100 courses since records began in the 1930s. Tom Doak's recent and subtle restoration has further enhanced the quality and reputation of the course. The Hotchkin is also rated as an SSSI, such is the rarity of the habitats that are found within this heathland environment. Created by Donald Steel, one of Britain's foremost golf course architects of the modern era, The Bracken Course, which opened in 1998, is a contemporary classic and the perfect complement to The Hotchkin Course. The Bracken has evolved into a course of exceptional finesse that is appreciated and enjoyed every day by golfers of all abilities. The aims of The National Golf Centre at Woodhall Spa include: To provide a venue for major championships To provide a centre of excellence for coaching the national squads To maintain the reputation of the Hotchkin Course in the world ranking lists To offer golf and facilities to England Golf members at an appropriate rate To continue the current relationship with Woodhall Spa Golf Club members To present all facilities and services to the highest possible standard Approximately £10 million has been re-invested back into the site including projects such as new irrigation systems, a full Hotchkin Course Renovation Programme, new buildings, additional facilities, and updating equipment and services. Construction of a new clubhouse incorporating retail, hospitality, tournament facilities and a heritage space will commence in February 2026 with a build time of some eighteen months.

When Big Tech companies abuse their power, their workers or the planet - and when governments use technology to oppress, exclude or discriminate - we litigate and campaign to fix it. Big Tech companies have become so large - gobbling up a huge slice of the global marketplace and an unprecedented treasure hoard of user data - that they're now more powerful than many states. The harmful effects of this concentration of power are everywhere - threats to our democracy, to our privacy, decimated workers' rights and platforms rife with disinformation and hate. Big Tech and AI data centres are rapidly expanding, resulting in huge strain on energy and water supplies. Worldwide governments are ploughing ahead with the use of algorithms and mass data systems to cut costs and increase efficiency often resulting in digital tools that entrench unfairness and leave the most vulnerable in society in crisis. All these problems are only getting worse with generative AI. Foxglove works to bring the rule of law to the tech and AI giants who have upended our public square, workplaces, and social lives. We have a strong track record. We've launched landmark cases seeking structural changes to big tech's harmful business models , supported 180+ Facebook content moderators fired for trying to form a union to sue Facebook and their outsourcing company, Sama - winning world-first judgements. We're urging competition regulators worldwide to stop Google's theft of independent news . We've filed the UK's first legal challenge to a data centre permission decision over the government's failure to properly assess their environmental impact. We've forced disclosure of secret contracts between tech giants and the NHS, stopped a racist Home Office visa streaming algorithm , helped make grading fair for UK A level students, forced the government to pause the NHS Data Grab and challenged the Department of Work and Pension's use of an algorithm unfairly flagging disabled people for benefit fraud investigations.
