A SECOND charity pub quiz held in Stoford has brought the total amount they have raised for Salisbury District Hospital’s Stars Appeal to £1,000.

Eleven teams battled it out to correctly answer the 75 questions and be crowned the winner of the quiz, held at the Swan Inn on Tuesday.

Owners Carl and Maris Pearce said: “We are delighted to support The Stars Appeal for a further quiz here at The Swan and would like to thank everyone who came to support us”.

Hannah Paye from the Stars Appeal said: “We’re thrilled to have the continued support from The Swan Inn at Stoford, which will benefit local children in hospital in Salisbury.

“The money will go towards providing a dedicated waiting and treatment area for children in A&E and a family unit for the parents and siblings of premature and critically ill babies.”

A cheque for the money was presented to Sara Willan, a governor of the hospital and a member of the Stars Appeal committee.
