On 5th September, our community came together for a Trivia Night at Manea British Legion and what a night it was! With eleven teams taking part, the evening was full of laughter, competition, and plenty of cheering.
A night of laughter and friendly competition
The atmosphere was electric, with teams clapping, cheering and celebrating each correct answer. From playful jokes to spontaneous applause, the night was full of moments that highlighted the power of coming together as a community.
Prizes and raffle fun
The evening had something for everyone, with prizes adding an extra spark of excitement. The winning team each received a bottle of prosecco, while the team in last place took home bottled water, a fun twist that had everyone smiling. A raffle also took place during the night, with a wide range of prizes on offer. This helped keep the energy high and ensured that every participant had the chance to walk away with something special.
Reflections from the Events Team
Our Events Coordinators, Kelly Hayes and Ella Cuthbert, were thrilled with the success of the evening.
Kelly reflected on the positive atmosphere: “it was wonderful to see so many people join in and really get into the spirit of the event. The energy was incredible, and it was so rewarding to see so much laughter being shared.”
The sense of joy and connection was felt throughout the evening, and both coordinators agreed that the event truly captured the community spirit they aimed for.
Ella added that what stood out most was the camaraderie between teams: “whether they won prosecco or water, everyone left smiling, which is exactly what we hoped for when planning the night.”
Community connections and thanks
“Social occasions like this are so important for strengthening community bonds. We’re grateful to Manea British Legion for hosting us, to our fantastic events team for their hard work, and to everyone who came along and made it such a memorable evening.”
