The Tamworth children's charity will host a trivia night at Wests Diggers next month to help keep providing accommodation to sick kids and their families receiving treatment at the hospital.
Tamworth house manager Steve Martin said there was already a pretty busy charity events calendar in the city, so it was important to offer something a bit more low key.

"We thought we would do something a bit different, rather than get on that ball circuit," he said.
"I think surplus cash is not there.
"That's why we're coming up with a fun night rather than a serous night, and it is not an expensive night because it works out as about $15 a head."
Mr Martin said the trivia side of the event wasn't designed to be a brain-strain and answers could even be attained with a little financial sway.
"The trivia night host can be bribed so if you don't know a question you can actually ask me," he said.
"You can know nothing at all and still win the night, if you have big pockets."
The event kicks off at 6pm in the Wests Diggers grand ballroom on Saturday, July 6.
Tickets are $15 a head or $120 for a table of ten.
There will be prizes, auctions and raffles on the night.
Tickets are available online.
