20th May 2025, our annual golf day at Close House.
Set in the beautiful and serene Tyne Valley, only seven miles outside the centre of Newcastle and nestled against the north bank of the River Tyne, the 250-year-old Close House estate has been lovingly formed into two of the best courses in the country. On 20th May 2025, Apex Radio Systems’ staff, customers and suppliers took to the Colt Course to play a round on the stunning grounds for our annual golf day and dinner.
A fantastic day was spent on one of the top 100 courses in the UK, as we welcomed our customers from all over the UK. Blue skies, great company, questionable golf, but memories made nonetheless.
The day began with networking and demonstration opportunities showcasing the latest Motorola Systems two-way radios, the R2, R5 and VT100 body-worn camera. Not to mention our Hytera ShopWatch fleet of HP5s, and the nationwide two-way radio, the Icom IP503h. Our customers in attendance included facility managers, hospitality managers, retail security managers, manufacturers and power stations employees. With a range of industries comes a range of needs and requirements, which our demo fleet delivered.
“Another hugely successful event by the team at Apex Radio Systems. We’re able to bring together our customers and suppliers to network and showcase products – whilst enjoying the great course that is Close House. We’re lucky to demonstrate the latest two-way radios and body-worn cameras offerings with such an amazing backdrop.” – Phil Wynne, Business Development Manager.
Armed with factor 30, sunglasses and caps, it was a huge success and delight to welcome back customers to our annual event.
Huge congratulations again to our 2025 winners!
