Kyle Young has put together a day out for 100 golfers at Whitecraigs Golf club with all of the proceeds going to the Ryan Connell foundation, which was named after his friend.

A Glasgow man has organised a big golfing event in the hopes of helping men's mental health charities across the city after his friend tragically took his own life.

The organisation was founded by Ryan's parents months after the 27-year-old lost his mental health battle in March 2021.
