January blues? Not for ReachOut! thanks to a Pub Quiz
fundraiser on January 22nd. Organised by a team of students at the
College of Law, the stage (a very fancy, refurbished Odder Bar) was set for a
challenging but fun quiz. The prizes were a great incentive – a bottle of Dom
Perignon as well as a cash prize – and so there was an atmosphere of friendly
(ish) competition!
The rounds covered everything from Olympic trivia to naming the London boroughs from a map (so grueling it was
an optional extra). Having looked at that round, I was ready to admit defeat –
the river was not even on the map and as a northerner I did not have a clue.
A big thank you to everyone that attended and helped raise a
whopping £250 for ReachOut! That’s enough to recruit and train 5 new mentors to
support our young people one-to-one, or provide free places on our Summer
Programme for 9 young people. The winning team also donated their cash prize which we
were flabbergasted about (thanks guys!). Well done team College of Law
– we really appreciate all your hard work. J
