Can You Help With This Year’s Raffle?
21 November 2020
Every year we host a Christmas charity raffle which is a popular event on the Quarter’s calendar. We plan to host the raffle again this year, but online as some much-needed fun during this time. Each year we receive very generous prizes for the raffle from local hotels and retailers. We did not want to ask them this year given the challenging times for them, so instead we are offering the opportunity for other businesses to sponsor prizes. By doing this we will be providing support to the Quarter’s hospitality sector and retailers whilst also helping families in need through our nominated charity North Paddington Food Bank.
The raffle will be available online for everyone to access, tickets will be £5, all proceeds will go to North Paddington Food Bank who have worked so hard to support those in need especially during the lockdowns and continue to do so as many face a difficult Christmas period.
We are reaching out to all our members to ask if you would be prepared to donate a prize purchased from one of our local shops, restaurants, cafes and hotels? An example of a prize could be:
- A three-course meal at a local restaurant
- An overnight stay at a local hotel
- A hamper
- A (virtual) class eg: cookery/calligraphy
- A voucher
Amazing prizes we’ve received so far include a voucher to spend at one of our hotels, a hamper from a local retailer and a meal at one of our restaurants. If you would like to donate a prize please do get in touch, letting us know what you would like to contribute to [email protected] by Wednesday 2 December.
