Amicus Law’s Ilminster team has raised an impressive £1,041.25 for Children’s Hospice South West following a successful charity quiz night held, at The Shrubbery Hotel, Ilminster.
The event brought together local businesses and members of the community for an evening of friendly competition, fundraising and support for the firm’s charity of the year. The funds will go towards providing vital care and support to children with life-limiting conditions and their families across the South West.
Throughout the year, Amicus Law will support Children’s Hospice South West through a variety of fundraising initiatives, with more events to be announced. Lucie Perryman from the charity also attended the evening and gave an insight into the invaluable work the charity does for local children and families. 
Erin Darling-Finan, Head of the Ilminster Office at Amicus Law – who organised the event – said: “We are absolutely blown away by the support we received from the local community.
“To raise over £1,000 from a single event is an incredible achievement and a reflection of the generosity of everyone who attended, donated and contributed towards our raffle.
“We are extremely grateful to The Shrubbery Hotel, Lucie and the team at Children’s Hospice South West, and all those who helped make the evening such a success!”
Children’s Hospice South West supports families across the region, providing expert care, respite and emotional support to children with life-limiting conditions and their loved ones. Every pound raised through community events such as the quiz night helps the charity continue delivering these vital services.
The event was well supported by the local community, with 15 businesses participating from around the county and even more donating raffle prizes.
Erin added: “On behalf of everyone at Amicus Law, we would like to thank everyone who attended the event, donated, supplied raffle prizes and contributed to the evening’s success. Their support will make such a meaningful difference and will help ensure the charity can continue its important work for families across the South West.”
