QUIZ buffs are being encouraged to enter a competition to help raise money for Hospice Care for Burnley and Pendle.
The quiz involves finding the names of 50 US state capitals hidden in a story. It has been devised by Michael Smith, of Manchester Road, in Burnley, who is a keen supporter and is also involved in Burnley and District Quiz League.
Hospice fund-raising manager Kaye Bartle said: "Michael works so very hard on our behalf thinking up these entertaining quizzes and we are very grateful to him for his continued support. Without support from the community we wouldn't be able to provide the care that is relied upon by so many local people."
There is a cash prize of £30 up for grabs for the winner. Quiz sheets cost £1 each and are available from either the reception at Pendleside Hospice, in Colne Road, Reedley, or from hospice shops until the end of July.
For more information on how you can help the hospice reach its fund-raising target telephone the fund-raising department on 01282 440100.
