🎄YES, WE KNOW IT'S AUGUST. NO, WE HAVEN'T LOST THE PLOT🎄

It's still technically summer, somewhere a barbecue is happening, and here we are talking about Christmas raffles.

But the early bird gets the raffle prizes, and Santa doesn't do last-minute deliveries to disorganised charity fundraising!

We're putting together our Christmas Raffle in support of TS Prince of Wales, the local Nautical Training Corps unit based here in Waterlooville, and we're on the hunt for local businesses generous enough to donate a prize.

Got a product, service, voucher, or mystery item gathering dust in a stockroom? Stick it in the raffle! In return, you get:

🎁 A shoutout to the local Waterlooville community

🎁3+ Community fundraising events advertising the raffle and those that are supporting it

🎁The warm glow of knowing you supported young people in the area — much cosier than any fireplace

If you can help us out, please either comment below or send us a direct message and we will be in contact!
