Russell Roof Tiles raises £80,000 for charity this year
Posted: Wednesday, December 6th, 2023
The event, which was held at Burton Albion’s Pirelli Stadium, saw a total of 53 teams of four, made up of customers, friends, family, staff, and suppliers from across the UK, join the concrete roof tile manufacturer for an evening of competitive quizzing. An auction, a raffle and a ‘reverse bingo’ also took place, all in the name of charity, Builders’ Merchants News reported. Andrew Hayward, managing director at Russell Roof Tiles said: “We are delighted to have again hosted such a successful event, coming together to enjoy a memorable evening with friends and supporters as well as raising another record-breaking amount for our Burton and Lochmaben charities. “Yet again this was our biggest and best Big Quiz so far; we had just over 200 people attend and so we want to say a massive thank you, specifically to Ben Robinson and Burton Albion for their continued support. “It was once again an incredible night that helped us raise a huge amount of money to support charities within our communities and make a real difference to people’s lives.” Russell Roof Tiles announced its target to raise £40,000 for good causes this year, with a project called Give4Good, and so were delighted to double this target. A total of 10 local organisations and charities were selected for this year, five local to its Lochmaben facility and five local to Burton on Trent.
