Dougray Scott to host charity golf tournament
Desperate Housewives star Dougray Scott is to sponsor the Leuka Mini Masters, the annual fundraiser hosted by the actor.
The Leuka Mini Masters offers a mixture of golf, music and a garden party and is held to raise funds for the research into and the treatment of leukaemia.
Former celebrities who have been involved in the tournament include Hugh Grant, Les Ferdinand and Jodie Kidd.
This years tournament will be held on July 15 2011 at Dukes Meadows, Chiswick. The event attracts many of Britain's leading golfing celebrities, with team captains this year including James Nesbitt, Gabby Logan, Gianluca Vialli, Jamie Theakston and Tim Lovejoy.
Thomas Lyte, who will be sponsoring this years event, invited Dougray Scott to join its team of silversmiths at Thomas Lyte Silver, one of England's last remaining dedicated silver workshops. There, the team worked with Dougray to handcraft a silver plated putter trophy, which will be awarded to the winning team of the tournament.
Spectator tickets are available to buy at seetickets.com and all proceeds from the event will benefit Leukaemia Research and the charitable work it does at the Hammersmith Hospital.
To celebrate its involvement in Leuka Mini Masters, Thomas Lyte has also curated a collection of its most luxurious leather and silver items that will appeal to golfing aficionados. For more information visit thomaslyte.com.
