I am proudly embarking on my second year as quiz master for national breast cancer charity The Haven.

It’s a charity close to my heart. Havens offer a free programme of in-depth support to improve the quality of life of anyone affected by breast cancer. The quiz takes place every year, raising vital funds to ensure that no one has to face breast cancer alone.

Everyone loves a quiz and especially a good pub quiz. What could be better than sitting down to your favourite tipple with friends and having your long-neglected grey matter tirelessly tickled? It encourages that friendly rivalry we all love.

And that’s why The Haven National Quiz is such a success. The Haven takes this much-loved tradition and gets its supporters nationwide going quiz-crazy. Women, men, schools, businesses and pubs across the UK take on The Haven Quiz, organising their own night. This year is the charity’s 10th anniversary and we want to widen the quiz network, making it the most successful year to date, raising £100,000. It’s a great way for communities and workplaces to come together and raise cash for a really wonderful cause. Nearly a million pounds has been raised from the Haven quizzes since they began.

For more information, or to order your fundraising quiz pack, please contact Katy at The Haven on 020 7384 0006.

Alternatively join me with your friends at our flagship quiz in London on November 11, 2010. Tickets will go on sale in September.
