Story
We're bringing this year's Christmas raffle to you virtually! Tickets are £3 for 1 ticket or £10 for 4 tickets. Please pay for your tickets on this page. Do not donate anonymously or hide the donation from public view - we need your name and amount paid in order to enter you in the prize draw. In case you wondered why there is no Gift Aid option, it's because when you get something in return for your donation (in this case, the chance to win a fabulous prize), the donation is not eligible for Gift Aid. The raffle will be drawn at 4pm on Tuesday 15 December and the winners will be notified by email shortly afterwards.
A reminder of who we are doing this for:
Every 5 minutes, a baby is admitted to neonatal care in the UK. Bliss is the leading UK charity for babies born premature or sick. They rely on donations to fund their work, and without our help they won't be able to reach the 100,000 babies needing neonatal care each year. Your donation to my page will help Bliss to drive improvements in neonatal care, to ensure that the needs of babies are at the heart of policy and planning for the future, and to provide information and support to all families with a baby born premature or sick.
The prizes up for grabs are:
£250 Selfridge’s Gift Card (kindly donated by Segun Osuntokun)
£150 voucher for a glamping or luxury camping UK break with Canopy & Stars (24% of the company is owned by a charitable trust which supports environmental causes)
Private London walking tour for up to 6 people with Unseen Tours, a charity that organises guided tours in London, the guides being formerly homeless people who provided unique and fascinating perspectives on various areas of London. 60% of ticket revenue goes directly to the formerly homeless and vulnerably housed tour guides, with the rest being reinvested back into the company for training and further development (kindly donated by George Burn).
£100 donation to a charity of the winner’s choice
Turkey Christmas lunch hamper (kindly donated by our catering company Vacherin). This will include the “crème de la crème” of ingredients, with the 4-5kg turkey from Banbury’s farm in Cornwall, a third generation family business which has been raising free range turkeys for over 50 years. A vegetarian alternative can be provided if requested.
3 month subscription with Willoughby Book Club (a choice of fiction/non fiction, children or young adult books)
