We are pleased to announce the results of the 2025 Guild Quiz.
This year 21 people submitted their completed sheets, out of the hundreds of sheets that were sold. Thank to everyone who supported this fundraising activity.
There were three entrants who scored full marks so we had an independent draw to select who got which prize, but they are all to be congratulated - Andrew Ashenhurst, Liz Reading and Jean Baker.
The next quiz will be available for distribution at the Summer Festival in September - look out for it and enjoy the challenge.
