Electric performance at Brain Game

A team from electrical and mechanical services firm Morecrofts proved to be bright sparks after winning this year’s Derbyshire Brain Game quiz.

The event, which recently took place at the Reach Events Centre, saw several teams, including from Marketing Derby, compete against one another and raise money for Marie Curie East Midlands in the process.

Morecrofts came out on top, winning the trophy, which this year was created thanks to a collaboration between the Art & Design and Engineering students at Derby College.

In joint second were Marketing Derby and Smith Partnership, while Bowmer + Kirkland and Geldards shared third place.

But the biggest winner on the night was the charity, which provides end of life nursing care in the county.

The Brain Game raised £41,669 for Marie Curie, which will fund 2,084 hours of nursing care.
