Charity Quiz Night - Great Success!!!!!

We had a great quiz night @ the Waggon+Horses Pub, Maidenhead, raising over £800 in just one night.

An amazing 90 people turned up and we had 20 quiz teams - an incredible turnout, and made possible only by the many generous donations from local businesses and people and the huge amount of time and effort put in by a select group of people!

Thankyous (and pictures after):

So - thanks to everyone that helped out. We had a hugely enjoyable, and more importantly, a hugely successful fundraising evening. A great turnout and amazing generosity - thanks.

We are now at 95% of our £3,500 target, truly incredible.
