Hope’s Quiz Night at The Hive on December 3rd had brains buzzing and raised nearly £500 towards the Winter Appeal.

Congratulations to the winning team from our colleagues at the RMC and their friends.

Questions varied on a range of topics including ‘Matters Medical’, ‘Asylum Geography’, and ‘Youthful Talent’, whilst a topical round entitled ‘Political Leaders’ elicited a fine chorus of groans!
