Shooting Star’s Annual Chippy Quiz Raises Over £1,800 for Charity

For the fourth-year running, we were delighted to be the headline sponsor of Shooting Star’s 11th annual Chippy Quiz, at The Elite Fish & Chip Company on Tritton Road, Lincoln. This year’s event was a record-breaker, raising an impressive £1,821.40 for Thistles Market Garden, the marketing agency’s Charity of the Year for 2025.

Thistles Market Garden, based near Boston, is a wonderful charity that provides adults with disabilities the chance to take part in meaningful horticultural activities. Their work helps develop practical skills, build confidence and promote social inclusion. We’re proud that our support will help to make their vital work possible.

This year’s Chippy Quiz welcomed more than 70 quizzers (including two teams from Micrometric) who enjoyed an evening of brain-teasing trivia, brilliant company and of course, delicious fish and chips.

Alongside the quiz, guests took part in a bumper raffle featuring 20 fantastic prizes generously donated by local businesses which helped to boost the fundraising total to its highest ever.

Since launching in 2013, Shooting Star’s Chippy Quiz has become a much-anticipated annual fixture, raising over £13,000 for local charities which is an incredible achievement.

As an extra special touch, our team at Micrometric put our laser expertise to good use by creating two bespoke trophies for the night. These were awarded to:

• Overall Quiz Winners: ‘The Cod Squad’
• Best Team Name: ‘Chips Don’t Lie’

We were thrilled to see our custom designs presented to such deserving winners.

We’d like to extend a huge thank-you to Shooting Star and Elite for hosting yet another fantastic event, to all the businesses who donated prizes and to everyone who took part and helped make the night such a success.
