A CHARITY pop quiz held in memory of Lydbrook teenager Leanne Davies raised £1,072.

The quiz was organised by Debbie Hutchinson who said it was so well-supported she had to turn people away.

She said: "The quiz was raising money for Leanne's Gift Charity, which gives financial aid to parents who have lost their teenagers in a road traffic accident. The quiz was written and hosted by Hereford DJ Pete Stead and was so well-supported we had to turn people away.

"The winning team, who collected a cash prize donated by a local businessman, handed the money back and we raised a phenomenal amount of £1,072. The quiz generated so much interest as it catered for every age group and we had questions from the 1960s to the present day. We plan to make it an annual event.

"A fundraiser is being organised in March for the charity which will coincide with what would have been Leanne's 21st birthday."
