A LOCAL children’s charity is holding a pub quiz night to support youngsters in the borough.

First Days is holding round four of its quizzing series, and says the event will be fun and suitable for everyone.

There will be a raffle, with prizes offered by local businesses.

Quiz teams can have a maximum of six members, and there is the option to enjoy a pizza dinner beforehand – this must be booked direct with the pub.

All proceeds from the quiz will directly support First Days.

Ellie Gosling from First Days says: “The evening is hosted by First Day’s very own fun manager, Camilla, who definitely makes the evening fun.

“People can expect high levels of banter, and challenging questions – along with the ‘I know this one’ variety.

“Each quiz night brings different rounds of questions.

“In the past we have had Sporting Cities, Name That Tune, and Who Am I.”

First Days Children’s Charity supports families who are living with a low income or are experiencing financial hardship,

It provides everyday essentials for children who need them, and works to ensure that all youngsters can feel safe, confident and have fun, while peer support and one to one coaching is available for parents.

The quiz will take place in Wokingham town centre’s Rose Inn, on Thursday, March 2.

The charity thanks The Rose Inn for hosting the event in the upstairs Oak Room.

Optional pizza dinner can be enjoyed at 6pm, with the quiz starting at 8pm.

Tickets cost £10, and include entry for a prize draw for a meal for two at The Rose Inn.
