Big Quiz
Each year the KM Group and the children's road safety charity
Kent and Medway Walking Bus Group team up to organise a series of
mammoth wine and wisdom events around the county.
Heats of the KM Big Quiz take place in Ashford, Canterbury,
Maidstone and Medway and raise approximately £20,000 for good
causes each year.
The top teams from the event are invited to the county final in
December which takes place at the Shepherd Neame Brewery in
Faversham. For details on the next KM Big Quiz event click the
