The BP team, comprising of managers from across the Middle East and South Asia, won the golf tournament during an Exploration and Production conference in Arizona, USA. Two members of the Senior Executive Team donated an additional USD500 each to match the golf prize. BP matched their donation to create a group gift of US$3,000.

The Future Centre will use the US$3,000 to upgrade its Light Sensory Room to become a Multi-Sensory Room which will be used to stimulate the senses such as sight, sound, smell, touch and taste, of the special needs children. The Room will also be used as a relaxation space.
