RAFFLE Draw

In order to comply with the 2005 Gambling Act only those Chances for which payment has been received are eligible for entry into the Draw.

In the event that the random number generator draw does not occur or is declared void on a single occasion then the Winning Number shall be determined in the same way but from an alternative method. Details of such an occurrence will be published on the Raffle website.

In the event that the Draw process below ceases to occur or is subject to fundamental change which prevents a Winning Number being selected then The Fundraising Foundry Ltd reserves the right to select an alternative Draw process. Such an alternative Draw process would be selected on the basis that the basic principles of the Draw as described would continue and the basic principles of how winners would be selected would continue as described. Such changes will be published on the Raffle website.

Each Raffle ticket represents one entry and an equal chance to win the guaranteed prizes. The odds of winning will depend on the total number of entries received.  The more entries, the lower the odds of winning any individual prize.  The exact odds will be calculated and available after the close of ticket sales and before the draw results are published at 17.45 GMT on Monday 2nd June 2025.
