Your 80s Quiz Night guide

Back in the 80s, the UK came together to help seriously ill children at Great Ormond Street Hospital. The Wishing Well Appeal became the largest ever appeal of its kind.

Now, we’re celebrating 30 years of support. Now, more than 600 children from across the UK arrive for treatment every day.

With your support, we can help find better treatments and cures for patients now and in the future.

They will always need us. And we will always need you.

Thank you for choosing to support Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity by holding your own 80s Quiz Night. Hopefully, you’ll find everything you need in this pack to make your 80s Quiz Night a huge success.

By raising money through your 80s Quiz Night you’ll be helping patients like six-year-old Scarlett.

Scarlett has cystic fibrosis, a lung condition that also affects the pancreas. She and her family have been coming to GOSH for nearly six years, since Scarlett was just five weeks old.

Don’t forget to send in your donations using the handy form we’ve included in this guide.

Q&As Q. What are we raising money for?

A. Every day brings new challenges at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Every day, 618 children and young people from across the UK arrive. Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses, and the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs.

This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support to give seriously ill children the best chance to fulfil their potential, and every day is a chance for you to make a difference.

By holding a quiz night, you're helping to fund groundbreaking research, advanced medical equipment, child and family support services, and the rebuilding and refurbishment of wards and medical facilities.

Q. When should we hold our quiz?

A. You can hold your ‘Then. Now. Always.’ 80s quiz throughout the year, but we're aiming to get as many people as possible across the UK holding fundraising events in March. If you can't, don't worry! The most important thing is that you hold your quiz night to help us to support our patients and families when they need it most.

Q. How do I tell people about our event?

Getting the word out is the best way to make your night a huge success. We’ve included a promotional poster in this pack which is a great place to start. You can print as many as you need and insert the details of your event. Social media is also a great way to spread the word so make sure you promote your event on your Facebook page and on Twitter.

Your 80s Quiz Night guide

Q&As Q. How much can we raise at our event?

A. We’d love you to raise as much as possible at your event to help us to fund patient family accommodation. It’s surprising how quickly the money can add up, for example if you have 10-teams of 5 people with each individual donating £3 to take part you’ll raise £150! There are lots of ways to boost your fundraising too. Take a look at our top tips on page 3 to help raise more dosh for GOSH.

Q. I want to make up my own questions – is that ok?

A. Of course! We hope that the questions we’ve provided are a good starting point but if you do want to do your own, please feel free. Why not tailor your quiz to appeal to your audience? If you’re a sporting bunch, why not have a 80s sports quiz. If you’re more of a music fan a 80s music quiz can be great fun too. If you need a little help the internet is full of quiz questions – just make sure they come with the answers included!

Q. How do I send my money in?

A. Simply complete the monies return form included in this pack and post it back to us with a cheque.

We’ll then be able to send you a thank you letter to let your customers know that we’re putting your donations to good use.

If you’ve got any questions or need any support please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
