Big Quiz draws staff from across Snows Motor Group to Eastleigh as they raise £5k+ for charity

Snows Motor Group raised more than £5,000 for the automotive industry charity Ben at its annual Big Quiz recently.

Colleagues from the Southampton-based dealership business gathered with family and friends at the Concorde Club in Eastleigh for what organisers said was the most successful event yet.

The evening also featured a company-wide auction, with lots including a pair of Aviator sunglasses, an Apple watch, a pizza oven and tickets to a Southampton FC game.

A total of £5,566.44 was raised for Ben, the charity for struggling people who work or have worked in the UK automotive industry.

Organiser Emily Harris, learning and development co-ordinator at Snows Peugeot Romsey, said: ‘‘Everyone had a wonderful time at our annual Big Quiz – the night was a resounding success.

“I’d like to say a massive thank you to everyone who supported the event.

‘‘It’s amazing that more than £5,000 has been raised for Ben, and we know the team there will put the money to extremely good use.

“Let’s hope we can raise even more money next time!’’

The event was backed by Mayflower Theatre, Euro Car Parts, OnCue Communications and Micheldever Tyres.

A spokesperson for Ben wrote to Snows: ‘‘We’d like to say a huge thank you for your amazing donation of £5,566.44.

‘‘We hope everyone had a great time at the quiz. You’re all an inspiration!

“This support has made a world of difference to those in our automotive family who need us.”
