Katrina'a Quiz Night

Katrina’s Quiz nights

Katrina is one of our longest fundraisers and has held many quiz nights in support of Oracle over the years in her local village. 

Says Katrina,

“I do love organizing a quiz, and so I held another quiz to raise funds and awareness for Oracle, in March this year in the village of Slip End. The evening was very well attended and the quizzers were very keen and enthusiastic creating a lively and noisy atmosphere.

“All of the scores were very close, but the 'Jim and Tonics' were the winners. The amount raised on the evening was £1,100.  My partner Phil was successfully treated by Peter Rhys Evans in 2005, and we have seen the charity and the research work develop over the years which is a great inspiration to raise funds for the charity.”
