BRAINBOXES helped to raise more than £2,200 for a germ cell cancer charity.

The 11th annual charity quiz was jointly hosted by Thompson Smith and Puxon, Jamesons and Barclays at Frinton Gold Club.

Over the 11 years, more than £25,000 has been raised for good causes thanks to the generosity of local businesses.

This year the quiz was held in aid of the Robin Cancer Trust.

Twenty teams from across the region took part in the quiz and the winners were TSP’s own Smart Alecs.

A total of £2,203 was raised on the night.
