All About Hearing raises over £2,200 for deaf children's charity

The big picture: The event, held at Kesgrave War Memorial Community Centre on 13 April, attracted 24 teams competing in a challenging trivia contest. The winning team, 'Lyn-Less', led by local resident Peter Knight, took home a £100 prize.

Why it matters: The funds will support deaf children and young people in the UK, providing crucial services and resources.

What they're saying: “We’re thrilled with the turnout and the amount raised at our Charity Quiz Night,” said Matthew Coward, Director for All About Hearing. “It was a fantastic evening filled with friendly competition and a real sense of community spirit. We’d like to thank everyone who participated, donated prizes, and helped make the event such a success.”

All About Hearing, a family-run business established in 2020, has made charitable events a key part of their community engagement.

• The company is run by mother and son duo Karen Finch and Matthew Coward.
• They operate clinics at Gilmour Piper on Fonnereau Road and at Two Rivers Medical Centre on Woodbridge Road East in Ipswich.

The cause: The National Deaf Children's Society, founded in 1944, provides support, information and advice for deaf children, their families, and professionals working with them.

The bottom line: The quiz night's success demonstrates the local community's commitment to supporting important causes while enjoying a night of friendly competition.
