Story
Inspired by The Archer Project's CEO, Tim Renshaw's recent 14 day sleeping rough, we decided to see what we could do to help us all raise more money for this incredible homeless project.
To encourage us all to dig deep and give what we can, we've sourced the most amazing raffle prize, of a Huge Complete Christmas feast kindly donated by UW Utility Warehouse. This is a no strings attached raffle/donation/fundraiser for the Archer Project.
The prize is a Complete Christmas Feast: turkey & beef and ALL the trimmings to see you through the Christmas period, including champagne, wines, non alcoholic drinks, cheese, crackers, smoked salmon, christmas pudding, all the nibbles, sweet treats (See full list below), all in time for Christmas.
£10 = 1 entry £10 buys lunch for 1 person for a week which also includes staff costs.
£20 = 2 entries £20 buys a good quality sleeping bag or pays volunteer travel expenses for 1 week for 1 person with lived experience to help get service users back into work place activities
£50 = 5 entries & buys a counselling session, a vital step on the road to rehabilitation.
Please give what you can to spread some Christmas cheer. Each £10s of donations will be allocated an individual number which will be drawn by Archer Project CEO Tim Renshaw at 11.30pm on Friday 16th December & shared on their social media channels.
Please tick that you are happy to be contacted by the organisers so that you can be notified ASAP when you win.
