Thirsk & Sowerby Institute Charity Quiz Night...

The Social committee from Thirsk and Sowerby Institute have been working hard this year supporting the Lambert Hospice, Thirsk Community Works and the Micro/Junior Section of Thirsk Rugby Club.

They have held a series of topical quizzes in the function room which have not only raised the fantastic amount of £2,300 but provided fun and enjoyment for all those who attended.

On Friday 20th December there was a Christmas Quiz and it was the turn of the Micro/Junior section from Thirsk Rugby Club to be the beneficiaries, Rugby Club Chairman Geoff Iles was presented with a cheque for £700 at the end of the evening. The event was well supported with 21 teams taking part and £700 was raised to donate to the rugby club.

He said ‘We are so grateful to Thirsk and Sowerby Institute for hosting this quiz for our benefit, we will carefully consider how to best use the money but it will definitely be spent on improving what we already offer our youngsters as they begin their rugby journey.
