 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hello folks!
As some of you know, I do some instructing and volunteering with Disability Snowsport UK (DSUK). They are running another prize draw this Spring to raise money for the charity to support their work bringing the joy of snowsports to people with all manner of disabilities.
Like before the number of entries is capped at 1000, and with less than a couple of weeks left there are still lots of tickets available, so potentially a very good chance of winning. A number of Snowheads  were very supportive last time around (thanks  ) so I hope some of you will be able to support us this time.
There are again some great prizes, including a summer holiday in Morzine donated by Chilly Powder, an original painting by RP Roberts, Carv2 with a Carv season pass, Dave Rydings underwear (or something like that).
Full list of prizes here: https://uk.givergy.com/TheBigSpringPrizeDraw/?controller=additionalInfo&action=page&number=1
Enter here: https://uk.givergy.com/TheBigSpringPrizeDraw/?controller=gliRaffles&action=showRaffle&id=1
Here's a bit more info..

Please forgive bumping my own post  Just 4 days left to grab a ticket, lots of tickets remaining unsold, so better than expected odds to pick up a prize.

What is with the free entry? Do you have to offer that as part of running a draw?

I've seen that before -- it is generally for postal entries (not sure why it should be free....)

I think it's a legal requirement. If there isn't a way to enter for free it becomes a lottery,which unless licensed by the gambling commission would be illegal

Ooh so take it somebody didn't accept their prize as I have just been emailed.
White water raft thing which is something I had hoped to do in the summer but ended up needing an elbow operation just ahead of when I was going to do it

@NickyJ, that was me! I sadly have my plans all fixed for the summer but it looked like a great prize.
I did also win a DS UK Googlesoc so I’ll be happy with that.
Hope you get to use the rafting!

I told hubby, and his reaction was "I was just thinking as I drove home passed the local water sport place (doesn't do this this stuff as only a lake), how much it would be good to have a go at canyoning or rafting together!"
