Love Island themed quiz to be held at Blackpool pub will raise funds and awareness for mental health

In light of the tragic death of the popular TV shows presenter Caroline Flack, 40, the pub is hoping to raise funds and awareness.

Spokesperson for Hashtag Quiz, Stuart Cumming said: “On March 13 we will be running a Love Island themed quiz at one of the venues we work closely with - the Air Balloon Hungry Horse in Blackpool.

“Considering recent tragic events and the ongoing mental health battles faced by so many, Hashtag Quiz would like to raise further awareness of mental health and the impacts surrounding this.

“The event won’t be ticketed but will have a suggested donation of £1 per person on each team, with all money raised on the night donated to ‘Mind’ Charity. The Air Balloon will be donating amazing prizes for the top teams, including vouchers to spend behind the bar and free drinks.

“We will also be holding a raffle with lots of amazing prizes and things to win, including tickets to local attractions in Blackpool, Blackpool Football Club Merchandise and so much more.

“You can also find some information on our facebook event page for this event.

“At the moment, we just want to get the word out so we can have as many people there as possible and make as much money for a really important cause as we can.

“Any help you can offer towards this would be more than appreciated.”

Caroline Flack took her own life on February 15, 2020.
