Kelly Denton and the members of Laptops and Lipstick, a women’s business network based in South London, organised their annual EHE quiz night in late February in support of a local EHE patient and the EHERCC. Laptops and Lipstick adopt a charity each year to support, and selected EHERCC for the 2022/2023 year. They then extend their support for a further year, holding their annual charity quiz night in late February at the brilliantly supportive Bridgehouse Pub in Peckham.
The event was a huge success, as Kelly explained:
“Last year’s quiz was fantastic, but this year’s was even better. We again filled the pub who did an excellent job hosting the event. We also had a lot of brilliant raffle prizes. Hugh Leonard was present and gave a brief update on the research that was taking place, thanks to the generosity and support for evenings like ours. It was also special having four actual EHE patients there on the night, bringing home the reality of EHE. And to top it all, we raised £1,960 during the evening for EHE research. I was so proud of everybody who organised and participated in the event. Without them we would not have raised those critical funds.”
Thank you Kelly and thank you to Laptops and Lipstick for their wonderful support
