A QUIZ night is being hosted to raise money for the memorial fund of an Aveley soldier killed in Afghanistan.
Nicky Mason, a 26-year-old paratrooper, was killed by an explosion during an operation in Kajaki in September 2008.
Cash prizes are up for grabs in the quiz, being held at Aveley Village Social Club, on Monday, April 2.
Doors open at 7.30pm and the quiz gets under way at 8pm. Entry is £2 and teams should consist of no more than six people.
There will be a raffle and all money raised on the night will go to the Lance Corporal Nicky Mason Memorial Fund, set up by Nicky’s father Dennis, to improve the South Ockendon and Aveley communities.
