⛳🗣️ “Kids when they get diagnosed, they often get told what they can’t do. So, I have been the voice speaking about what you can.” – Erika Malmberg

In the first film from The R&A World Golf Museum’s “New Voices” collection, we celebrate neurodiversity in sport. Erika discusses her experience of golf with autism and ADHD and how she uses her platform to bring understanding and awareness to others.

Watch Erika’s full film and the entire “New Voices” collection in the the R&A World Golf Museum's digital guide on Bloomberg Connects or on your next visit to the Museum.

Your perfect Sunday reset starts here 😌

An opportunity for a mindful moment at the R&A World Golf Museum, with art journaling and relaxed craft opportunities for adults.

Are you looking for a moment of calm in your week? This session is for you.

Join us for a relaxed craft session for adults (18 years and above). We will begin the session with some mindful breathing, creating a moment of calm for us all, leaving behind the week that has just gone.

Participants are encouraged to bring along their own notebook for some creative doodling, use of watercolour paint or journaling, an unlined or dotted one would be advised. If you don't have this to hand on the day, you will be able to create your own drawings using the materials we have.

Participants may also bring their own craft projects such as knitting, crotchet or embroidery, to work on during the session. There will also be colouring in sheets to create mindful designs.
