We recently featured an article about a Quiz Night and Disco is being held on Friday 25th May 2007 at The 1884 Sports Bar which is at the Walkers Stadium, from 8pm until 1am. We are pleased to announce that Leicester Sound’s drive time presenters Damien St John and Naomi Kent will be hosting the evening http://www.leicestersound.co.uk/drivetime and bringing one or two special prizes with them!
As a reminder the evening has been organised to raise funds to hopefully cover the cost of physio for founder board member of the Foxes Trust, Steve Smith who suffered a massive stroke in December 2005 which left him unable to walk, use his right arm or speak. He was 37, married, and has three young sons.
Since his stroke, Steve has been having physio and speech therapy several times each week. He is now able to walk and has a limited vocabulary, which is an amazing achievement in just over a year. However, he has just been told that his NHS physio is to stop and so this will now need to be privately funded.
To help contribute towards this expense, a Teams participating in the quiz must contain a maximum of 6 members. Tickets for the event are £10 each and every penny will go directly to Steve’s fund.
Tickets will be available this Friday (6th April) prior to the Derby game 1.15 – 2.15pm from the Foxes Trust office located at the ground, directions can be found here: http://foxestrust.co.uk/site/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=207&Itemid=42
