THE League of Friends of Wellington Hospital raised £436 at a quiz evening at Wellington Rugby Club.

The event, held before social distancing because of the coronavirus outbreak came into place, was attended by more than 90 people, forming 20 teams.

Monica and Simon Spalding set the questions and hit just the right degree of difficulty. A colourful ploughman’s supper was served at the interval, when the raffle prizes were drawn.

The winning team, with 157 points, was Ignorance is Bliss, proving that team members Anne Norman, Judith Smith, Linda Forsyth and Vanessa Archer are anything but ignorant.
