A Quizzing Year
Do you enjoy pub quizzes or testing your knowledge on a wide range of topics If so, our Quiz Nights
are just for you.
The first one is being held on Sunday 28 April at 7.00pm at Coronation Hall, Stoke Road, Bletchley
MK2 3AB. £10 a team and maximum of six people per team. The evening will include the quiz with
prizes for 1st and 2nd place and a bonus ball game. Refreshments will be available to purchase on

The summer quiz will be held on 9th June at Kiln Farm Pub.

Quiz Sheet – a Journey around the British Coastline
For just £1.00 and a stamped addressed envelope you can enjoy solving the clues, all answers are the names of town on the UK
coast. All quiz sheets with the correct answers received by 23 May will be included in a draw. The first prize is a £20 Marks and
Spencer voucher, the second prize a £15 voucher. Entry details are included on the back of each sheet.
We will issue a second quiz sheet in October to correspond with our Voices for Hospices concert. If you are a music buff this one
may appeal to you.
To obtain a copy of the quiz sheet write to The Friends of Willen Hospice at the address below, enclosing your cheque and SAE.
Please mark your envelope ‘Quiz’.
Donating is Easy
Donations to the Friends can now be made via the MyDonate website. If you decide to take part in or
hold a sponsored event on behalf of the Friends, e.g. run a marathon or if you have a significant birthday
or anniversary and would rather your friends and relatives donated money to the Friends than bought
presents My Donate is easy for them to use.
Go to http://www.btplc.com/mydonate/index.aspx this takes you to the main page to either set up your
own fundraising event; sponsor someone else who is doing a sponsored event or just to donate to a
charity. To find us look for Friends of Willen Hospice. We already have the site pre-populated with all
our charity information and once the charity is selected the page details information about our aims and
activities.
