A mental health charity has raised more than £4,000 at its annual quiz night.

Solent Mind held the event at The Concorde Club in Eastleigh, with drag queen Cherry Liquor hosting the night.

Supporters of the charity gathered for the evening of entertainment which was sponsored by Morgan Sindall Construction & Infrastructure.

The charity raised £4,140 and all funds will be used to support mental health in the region.

Twenty-six teams participated in the quiz, which consisted of five rounds. After a final tie-breaker, Portsmouth-based finance company Liquid Friday took home the winner's trophy.

Among the other teams were Barratt David Wilson Homes Southampton and air traffic control service provider NATS, both of which already support Solent Mind by having their employees volunteer for the organisation.

Solent Mind is the largest mental health charity in Hampshire and provides a wide range of services across the county, including Southampton and Portsmouth.
