Fergus is Trust Quiz Master

November 10, 2023 By Forres Heritage Trust

A seven-year-old boy has been drawn as the winner of a Forres Heritage Trust Quiz that was circulated around the town.

Fergus Rhind was picked as the winner of the quiz which was created by Trust supporter John Sutherland and was available in a number of shops in the tow centre.

There were 13 completed quizzes with six of them being completely correct. Fergus who attends Anderson’s Primary was drawn as the winner.

John created the quiz to raise some funds for the Forres Heritage Trust which is run by volunteers. The Trust owns the Tolbooth and also looks after Nelson’s Tower.

He said: “I am very passionate about the history of Forres and I thought a quiz about it would be fun and raise some funds for the Trust. It was great to see that quite a few youngsters took part and I offer a big well done to Fergus for getting all the answers correct.

Fergus who did the quiz with help from dad Adam and was presented with a £20 prize said: “I enjoyed taking part in the quiz.”

George Alexander, chairman of the Forres Heritage Trust said: “John has been a huge supporter of the Heritage Trust and we thank him for his efforts in creating the quiz. Like John said, it was great to see young people taking part and I congratulate Fergus on his achievement.”
