The raffle will be drawn on 27th June at 13:00 BST.
The profits are split: In light of current circumstances we will be donating the profit split to the charity Decolonising Contraction. Decolonising Contraception is a community based organisation created by black & people of colour (BPOC) working within Sexual & Reproductive Health (SRH).
' We believe that Sexual & Reproductive health (SRH) is a fundamental human right & we believe in equal access for all people irrespective of race, gender, sexuality, disability, class or creed. We believe that SRH hasn't addressed its colonial origins - its practice is derived from racial hierarchies and continues to operate based on a desire for population control. This in part contributes to health inequalities experienced by those experiencing racism. '
