Project Title  EAGLE: Development of connection pathways from primary care to golf packages

We are undertaking an exciting research project within the School of Medicine at the University of St Andrews, in collaboration with The R&A, Scottish Golf, Fife Golf Trust, The European Tour and The Ladies European Tour.  The project aims to design acceptable, feasible and engaging connection pathways from GP practices to golf packages offered by hosting golf clubs. The findings of this study will enable more people to benefit from the physical and mental health and wellbeing improvements that golf provides.  

We are seeking members of the public (golfers and non-golfers) to take part in an online survey asking for their views and ideas on designing one or more connection pathways – participants will receive a £5 Amazon voucher to thank them for taking part.

If you are interested in learning more about taking part, please get in contact using the details below.
