Patron Spotlight: Anders Mankert 💙

Today we’re celebrating someone who plays a truly special role in our EWBG family — our Patron, Anders Mankert.

Anders has supported blind and partially sighted golf for many years, championing inclusion, opportunity and the belief that golf should belong to everyone. His passion for accessible coaching and his commitment to creating welcoming environments has opened doors for so many people living with sight loss.

As Patron, Anders brings not only his professional expertise, but his heart. He understands the power of golf — the confidence it builds, the friendships it creates, and the independence it gives our members.

We’re proud to have him by our side, and grateful for everything he continues to do for our charity and our community.

Thank you, Anders, for helping us make golf a place where everyone can belong. 💛

🏅 Honoured by the King.

Congratulations to @Anders_Mankert, PGA Master Professional from Leicestershire and Rutland, who has been awarded a British Empire Medal (BEM) for his outstanding services to golf and to people with disabilities.

Anders, who owns and runs @GolfLeicester, has spent over 30 years making golf more inclusive - from coaching blind and visually impaired players to creating welcoming facilities for golfers of all ages and abilities.

His Honorary BEM, awarded as part of the King’s Birthday Honours List, reflects his exceptional contribution to the game and his community.

Anders is one of just 66 PGA Professionals in the Association’s history to be recognised as a Master of The PGA, an honour he received earlier this year.

👏 A truly inspirational PGA Member - congratulations, Anders!
