Rotherham Taylor quiz

Leading Preston accountants, Rotherham Taylor, has raised more than £1,200 for Parkinson’s UK with a charity quiz night that brought the local community together.

The event, held at Fulwood and Broughton Cricket Club, was attended by 12 teams, including friends, families, clients, and business contacts of Rotherham Taylor.

The atmosphere was filled with excitement as participants competed in a series of brain-teasing rounds, culminating in a thrilling tiebreaker that determined the winners.

After a closely contested evening, the 'Thursday Club' team, led by Sarah Cuerden, emerged victorious followed by Emma Woan's 'Emma's Boys' team.

Speaking about the success of the event, Rebecca Bradshaw, a Director at Rotherham Taylor, said: "We are delighted to have raised over £1,200 for Parkinson’s UK – our charity of the year for 2024. Congratulations to the 'Thursday Club' for their win after a nail-biting final round!"

The venue for the quiz was generously donated by the cricket club, and the event’s success was also bolstered by an array of raffle prizes provided by local businesses.

Rotherham Taylor has expressed its gratitude for the generous support of:

  • DD Cooling Ltd
  • Leonard Curtis
  • Nori Financial
  • Morrisons
  • Costa Coffee
  • Louise Williamson Beauty
  • Escape Entertainment
  • Preston North End
  • St Helens Rugby Football Club
  • Harvester Buckshaw
  • OOSC

“We are thrilled with the community's support for this worthwhile cause and look forward to hosting more events to bring people together for charity in the future,” added Rebecca.
