The Foundation is proud and delighted to announce that Lord and Lady Verulam have taken the position of patrons. They join our other patrons Bernard Gallacher OBE, Peter Alliss and Colin Montgomerie OBE in the UK along with Ben Crenshaw of the USA. All are committed to furthering the aims and objectives of The Foundation.

Their family has many strong links with St Albans dating back over 350 years. Their Gorhambury estate included the land on which Verulam Golf Club is now situated. Lord Verulam is president of the Club, where Samuel Ryder was a member until his death in 1936.

Lady Verulam also a golfer, is The Lord Lieutenant of Hertfordshire.
