Fund Week Quiz Night Gets The Right Answers

The BIS Conference Centre played host to a special quiz night to mark Fund Week, backed by our President, Sir Gus O’Donnell.

Concentration at the 2011 Fund Week Big Quiz, held at BIS Conference Centre

Despite his extremely busy schedule Sir Gus was able to take a full part in the evening, organised by Trustee Board member Siobhan Benita, and a fellow colleague from the Department of Health, Tony O'Connor.

And it quickly became clear that there’s a real enthusiasm for the quiz night becoming an annual part of our fundraising calendar, as queues to take part threatened at one stage to extend out of the entrance doors...

Eventually 21 teams settled in to test their wits against a wide range of general knowledge questions.

Highlights of the evening can be seen in the video, and photos, below:

With an auction for a valuable bottle of Irish Whiskey also boosting fundraising, the quiz night raised a tremendous £770 for Fund Week, and will contribute towards our 125th anniversary appeal.

A huge thanks to everyone who took part, and especially to Siobhan and Tony for organising the event.

Rumours are that they are already planning the 2012 Fund Week quiz night, so watch this space...
