Snows Motor Group raised £5,566.44 for the automotive industry charity Ben via its annual ‘Big Quiz’.
The event, held at the Concorde Club, was attended by members of staff and their friends and family. The quiz night was organised Emily Harris, learning and development Co-ordinator at Snows Peugeot Romsey.
She said: ‘‘Everyone had a wonderful time at our annual Big Quiz – the night was a resounding success. I would 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!’’
Prizes were handed out to the winning teams, supplied by local companies such as the Mayflower Theatre, Euro Car Parts, PR specialists OnCue Communications and Micheldever Tyres.
There was also a company-wide auction where colleagues bid for lots such as Aviator sunglasses, an Apple watch, a pizza oven and tickets to a Southampton FC match.
A spokesperson for Ben said: ‘‘We would 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.’’
