Smiling people with Big Quiz logoThe Big Quiz

A quiz is a fun event that everyone can join in with. Host your own and raise money for Help the Aged!


Q: Who can win at the Big Quiz?
A: Everybody!

It’s not about who has all the answers or the highest IQ. It’s about getting together, taking part and having a good time whilst raising vital funds to help disadvantaged older people.

Our free host pack includes everything you need to organise a Big Quiz for your friends, family and colleagues. Register for a pack today and get practising your Anne Robinson put-downs!

Help stop mental decline

Imagine having days where you can't remember how to turn on the cooker. 800,000 people suffer from some form of mental decline, including illnesses such as dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

The Disconnected Mind is a research programme funded by Help the Aged, looking at the impact of ageing on mental decline. Initiatives like this are essential in ensuring that treatments and cures can be found for illnesses connected with old age.

Keep your mind active

One of the best ways to avoid mental decline in the future is to stay mentally agile, and it’s never too late to start. By hosting a Big Quiz you can keep your own mind active whilst helping us create a brighter future for older people through both our research and our vital services across the UK.
