Fund raising festive Quiz
A devious Christmas quiz to raise funds for the Alzheimer’s Society. The charity is giving its full backing and support.
Alzheimer’s disease has become common throughout the country and probably you know someone, even maybe in your family, who is a sufferer. It affects the brain, causes dementia and has serious repercussions for those involved. The carers, often the spouses, have a difficult time and the Alzheimer’s Society provides much needed help and continues research into finding a cure
The quiz is sponsored by Barclays Bank PLC who are matching funding up to £750. It is also supported by the Rotary Club of Tiverton. Their support means that every penny you donate will go to the Alzheimer’s Society as all expenses and prizes are covered. I hope you enjoy the quiz with its dress theme and that you will enter the competition for prizes (totalling £100). There is even a random prize of £10, irrespective of score, drawn from all contestants after the first three prizes have been awarded.

Sing something familiar
The air was buzzing at a recent Café meeting. Members joined in with gusto as Rowena regaled us with familiar songs from way back when.
Adding to the fun, we were asked to identify the songs and shows from original posters.
After all that energetic singing and playing, of course we needed a Tea-Break!
If you would like to book Rowena, she would be delighted to hear from you.
