Local hearing specialists All About Hearing hosted a successful charity quiz night, raising £2,275 for the National Deaf Children's Society.
The big picture: The event, held at Kesgrave War Memorial Community Centre on 13 April, attracted 24 teams competing in a challenging trivia contest. The winning team, 'Lyn-Less', led by local resident Peter Knight, took home a £100 prize.
Why it matters: The funds will support deaf children and young people in the UK, providing crucial services and resources.
What they're saying: “We’re thrilled with the turnout and the amount raised at our Charity Quiz Night,” said Matthew Coward, Director for All About Hearing. “It was a fantastic evening filled with friendly competition and a real sense of community spirit. We’d like to thank everyone who participated, donated prizes, and helped make the event such a success.”
All About Hearing, a family-run business established in 2020, has made charitable events a key part of their community engagement.
The company is run by mother and son duo Karen Finch and Matthew Coward.
They operate clinics at Gilmour Piper on Fonnereau Road and at Two Rivers Medical Centre on Woodbridge Road East in Ipswich.
The cause: The National Deaf Children's Society, founded in 1944, provides support, information and advice for deaf children, their families, and professionals working with them.
The bottom line: The quiz night's success demonstrates the local community's commitment to supporting important causes while enjoying a night of friendly competition.
