Badoney and Corrick Presbyterian Church were delighted to be able to donate £1,200 to Tearfund following a very successful Tearfund Big Quiz on Saturday, November 7.

A record number of 17 teams participated in the craic and after eight rounds of trivia from quiz mistress Julie McConnell, ‘Trinity’ and ‘Marching on Together’ were crowned joint winners.

The donation will allow Tearfund to enable two villages to lift themselves out of poverty. Tearfund helps the world’s most marginalised people move out of poverty, for good. It helps people meet urgent needs such as food, clean water and safety and to move beyond everyday survival so they can build the future they want for themselves and their community.

The organisers would like to thank Bradleys Pharmacy, John J Kemps and Sons, The Meat Joint and the Spar, Newtownstewart for donating spot prizes and those who provided supper, totted up the scores, did the dishes and most importantly everyone who came along enjoyed the evening and made a donation. Your help and support is much appreciated.
