Taking place at Porchester Hall in Bayswater, the Q Trust Quiz formula will remain the same; teams of 10 take a table, giving a donation of £50 per head to take part.
You can bring your own picnic - or order one (details to follow). Drinks will be available from the bar, with all profits going to the charity. We will provide questions, glasses and napkins; you provide food, cutlery, bonhomie and brain power. There will be a live auction, raffle and prizes for the winning team – although victory is of course the ultimate reward.
The Q Trust was set up in 2001 by Mark Reynolds in memory of his friend Quentin Crewe to raise money for research into muscle-wasting conditions. After Mark’s death from muscular dystrophy, his widow Jemima continued to raise money for this excellent cause, and the Q Trust Quiz became something of a tradition amongst their friends. Tragically, Jemima died in 2015, and so we now keep the tradition alive – in memory of Quentin, Mark and Jemima – with a fun night of quizzing, and to raise further funds for the Trust. The Q Trust’s total fundraising has hit the £3.1 million mark, helping to ensure Quentin and Mark’s legacy will be a lasting one.
All funds raised from this year’s Q Trust Quiz will go towards helping Muscular Dystrophy UK fund pioneering research into effective treatments and cures for muscular dystrophy whilst raising awareness of these devastating conditions.
So please round up your friends, coin a clever team name and book your table now.
