FAQs

What is the Mighty Quiz?

The Mighty Quiz is Alzheimer’s Research UK’s fundraising quiz. It’s the perfect way to bring together your family, friends and colleagues for a brilliant night of trivia and challenges to raise money for dementia research.

You’ll get everything you need in your Quizmaster pack – including question sheets, challenge rounds, goodies and tips for nailing your event.

Quizmasters will be challenging the nation throughout the year to go head to head for dementia research. You can hold your quiz whenever suits you – we’ll be holding our quiz days on 24 October 2019, why not join us and hold yours then too?

How do I get involved?

You can host your own Mighty Quiz by signing up for a Quizmaster pack here. The pack will give you all the information you need to host your own quiz. Alternatively, if you know someone who would make a perfect Quizmaster why not ask them if they would like to host a quiz.

If you’re unable to host your own Mighty Quiz, you can help us make research breakthroughs quicker by donating online.

How can I get a Mighty Quiz pack?

You can get your free digital pack instantly here – it has everything you need for holding your quiz.

If you’d like to speak to someone about receiving a pack in the post, please contact fundraising@alzheimersresearchuk.org.

If I held a quiz last year, can I hold one again this year?

Yes! The pack has been updated with brand new quiz rounds and challenges for this year.

Do I have to hold my quiz on a specific date?

No! You can hold your event on any day you like.

We’re holding our quiz days on 24 October 2019 – you can join us and hold yours then too or you can hold yours on whatever date suits you!

We find Thursdays are a popular day, as pubs usually allow for large groups then. If you have any questions or would like help in organising your quiz you can contact your local fundraiser here.”

How do I set up an event and invite my friends?

You can host your own Mighty Quiz by signing up online. You will then receive your own Quizmaster pack which is full of advice, ideas and tips to help you host a night to remember (as well as a raft of quiz and challenge rounds to choose from).

How you organise your event is up to you! Whether you hold your Mighty Quiz at home with friends or in a pub with a hundred guests, you’ll need to choose your venue, quiz rounds and prizes. But you don’t need to do this alone – get your friends involved to help you organise your quiz and spread the word in your local community and on social media.

We’re here to help you out too – just get in touch.

How much should I ask people for?

We recommend setting a suggested donation of £5 per person to take part in your Mighty Quiz. If you have 10 teams of 5 people each, you could raise an incredible £250!

You can also hold a raffle, additional challenge rounds and sell refreshments to help you raise even more on the night!

I can’t hold my own Mighty Quiz. Can I make a donation instead?

Yes please! You can make a one-off donation here.

How does our money help?

Every Mighty Quiz raises money for vital, life-changing dementia research, which aims to create a world free from the fear, harm and heartbreak of dementia. You can find out more about our work here.

For every £1 donated, 85p powers our research and helps people to understand and fight dementia. The remaining 16p raises the next £1 and funds essential running costs.
