Trainee lawyers from a Sheffield law firm have raised more than £1,000 for charity.

The team from hlw Keeble Hawson hosted an Indian quiz and curry event as their contribution to the Mistress Cutlers Challenge.

The firm which is one of the region’s biggest law practices with offices in Sheffield, Leeds and Doncaster invited clients and contacts to the quiz and curry “Quizine” event held at the 7 Spices Balti Restaurant in Sheffield.

hlw Keeble Hawson took part in the 2012 challenge and raised more than £4,000 in total for Cavendish Cancer Care.
