Willow Raffle Terms and Conditions

The Willow Raffle is open to all UK residents aged 16 or over.

No tickets can be sold to, on behalf of, or for a person under the age of 16 years. The Promoter reserves the right to carry out age verification checks. If a ticket is unknowingly sold to, on behalf of, or for a person under the age of 16 they will be exempt from the raffle and forfeit their prize. The stake will be returned.

The purchase of one raffle ticket entitles the player to one chance in the draw. Tickets cost £1 each.

Tickets will only be entered into the draw when the whole payment is received.

To keep you safe, we have a single purchase limit of 100 tickets, this limit is not wholly restrictive. If you would like to purchase outside of this limit, please contact [email protected].

All purchased ticket stubs must be completed with name and contact information.

Donations made alongside ticket purchases will be eligible for Gift Aid reclaim, so we could receive 25% extra at no cost to you. Gift Aid is not claimable on the purchase of raffle tickets.

The draw closing date is 31 August 2026 – the draw date is 14 September 2026. Entries received after the closing date will be treated as a donation.

The promoter accepts no responsibility for lost, damaged, illegible raffle tickets from which the prize winner cannot be identified, or for any technical failure or event that may cause the competition to be disrupted or corrupted.

Winning tickets will be selected at random and prizes awarded by chance and allocated in order of the tickets being drawn from first prize down to third prize.

Winners will be notified by post, email, or telephone as soon as possible after the draw date. Results will be published on our website.

Your break can be booked from 21 September and must be booked and taken by the end of February 2026 (break cannot be taken during school holidays).

Where the promoter is unable to contact a prize winner and that prize remains unclaimed for three months following the promoter’s first attempt to notify the prize winner, the promoter may apply the prize as it sees fit, including re-offering the prize in future raffles.

All winners are required to co-operate with the promoter’s right to publish their win as and where deemed appropriate.
