  • The cost of each entry is £1. Players may purchase more than one entry, and payment must be in advance. The maximum number of tickets one individual can purchase is 50.
  • CAF payments are not valid and will be treated as donations.

  • If a ticket is sold unknowingly to, on behalf of, or for a person under the age of 18 they will be exempt from the raffle and will forfeit their prize and the stake will be returned.

  • Prizes are by BACs transfer wherever possible. Winners will be notified by telephone in the first instance before a letter is sent to their address.
  • The draw will be conducted by utilising a Random Number Generator that has been tested and approved by an independent, Gambling Commission approved, third party test house in combination with a blind draw in plain sight of staff. The results of the draw are final.

  • The winner may be asked to take part in World Animal Protection PR and promotional activity.
  • If a prize is unclaimed after 2 months and reasonable efforts have been made by World Animal Protection to contact the winner, then World Animal Protection will be entitled to dispose of the prize as it thinks fit. The winner has one month after notification to claim the prize and 12 months thereafter from the claim date to redeem it.
