Tim Yeo, the only MP with a single figure golf handicap, will be joining the GIMA team and be the after dinner speaker at next week’s GIMA Charity Golf Day and Evening event (Thursday 6 June, Staverton Park, near Daventry).
Tim Yeo was shadow Minister for Agriculture during the foot and mouth crisis and has worked in the Trade and Industry, Environment and Education ministries. While Margaret Thatcher was Prime Minister he was PPS to Douglas Hurd both in the Home and Foreign Office. Renowned for his sparkling wit, his audience can expect some real ‘Yes Minister’ anecdotes and recollections from the era of the late Margaret Thatcher as well as some stories from his world as a writer and book reviewer.
There are still some places to play golf, join the evening event or simply to be a sponsor and help raise money for the two charities the event is supporting this year – Garden Leave which works with war veterans with invisible injuries, and Greenfingers.
