ON Friday, March 27 the Old Railway Line Garden Centre is hosting a charity quiz and curry night as part of the national Garden Re-Leaf Fundraising Day.

Garden Centre owner Mark Cleary said "Tomorrow we will be hosting our fourth charity quiz and curry night in our Railway Restaurant from 6.30pm. The evening is in aid of Greenfingers, which creates gardens at children's hospices across the UK. Greenfingers is a fantastic charity which we enjoy supporting every year.

"Teams of up to six people can enter and tickets cost just £10 per person including quiz entry and a choice of delicious homemade curries. The quiz, written and presented by myself, will contain a wide range of subjects to appeal to people of all ages and interests with £120 worth of gift vouchers on offer as prizes."

Tables for the quiz can be booked by calling the garden centre on 01497 847055.

As well as the quiz night there will also be a variety of fundraising activities at the garden centre during the day tomorrow and Saturday.

Mark added "On Friday and Saturday customers are invited to join us between 10am and 4pm to enjoy a range of fundraising activities. Come along to take part in our popular 'wellie throwing challenge', raffle and a 'soak the boss' wet sponge throwing stall which I am not looking forward to! Activities cost just £1 a go giving you an opportunity to win a wide range of fantastic prizes including gardening products, gift hampers, planted pots and many more!

"We hope lots of people come along for the quiz night and also take part in the fundraising activities to help raise lots of money for Greenfingers."

Greenfingers was launched in November 1998 by a group of volunteers drawn from all sectors of the gardening industry. The gardens it creates are designed to help children and their families and friends during a very emotional and difficult time.
