Sue Wheeldon organised a Fundraising Quiz on 25th September 2009 at NHS Nottinghamshire County, Birch House, Rainworth, Mansfield. A total of £250.10 was raised for CRY.
The event was organised by the Charities Network, with information about CRY on every table and on a board. There were several ‘last minute’ teams that entered so there was quite a bit of ‘table splitting’ going on.
After the event a “thank you” was given by Sue Wheeldon on behalf of Freda and Mike McNamara.
Sue also gave a brief explanation of what CRY will use the money for; encouraged all those present who had young friends or relatives to contact CRY about heart testing; and urged people to spread the word to their friends.
The Question Master was Lindsay Scatcherd who did a first class job.
The winning team won a hamper, medals and a ‘trophy’ which they can keep until the next quiz event.
There was also a raffle, which saw a whole raffle book sold out! The raffle prize was a day at Eden Spa which was won by Gill Oliver.
The atmosphere was brilliant and everyone said how much fun they had whilst raising money for a good cause.
