Waternish Hall Christmas Raffle 2024

Tickets are now on sale for the Waternish Hall Christmas Raffle 2024!

How much are raffle tickets and where can I get them?

Raffle tickets are £1 each, and of course you may buy as many as you like - the more you buy, the more chance you have of winning a prize. You can purchase tickets online, if you use online banking, or in person if you'd sooner pay cash. If you wish to purchase online, to receive payment instructions just send an email with your name and contact number to: raffle@waternishhall.com , and put 'Raffle Tickets' in the subject field. If you wish to buy in person, you may do so from one of the following outlets:

Dunvegan Post Office;
Judi's house in Halistra on Waternish;
Frank's house in Stein on Waternish.

If buying in person on Waternish, please phone first using the contact details below, to make sure someone is in when you call. Dandelion Designs in Stein will also be selling tickets during the next Waternish Festive Shopping Weekend, on 14th and 15th December.

What can I win?

We already have more than 50 items to give away as prizes - thanks to the generosity of local businesses and individuals who have donated them - but more prizes are coming in on a daily basis. An up-to-date list of prizes is available to view on the Raffle page of the Hall website. Remember, last year we gave away more than 100 prizes to lucky winners. We're able to accept donations for raffle prizes right up until the day before the raffle, so if you'd like to make a donation, see the separate item in this newsletter.

When is the raffle draw?

The raffle draw will take place on Saturday 21st December at 12 noon and once again the event will be live-streamed via our YouTube channel direct from Raffle HQ, aka Judi's kitchen. A video of the draw will then be posted on the same channel within 24 hours or so of the end of the draw. If you want to see who are this year's lucky winners then don't forget to tune in!

What's it all in aid of?

Primarily, it's a fun way to raise money for the Hall. As many of you know, as a small charity, the Hall faces a constant challenge to raise funds to finance its running costs. It's only through the generosity of local businesses and individuals who support our fund raising activities, such as the Christmas Raflle, that we are able to keep the Hall open. Last year's raffle was the most successful in the short history of the event, so let's hope that, with your support, this year's will be equally, if not more, successful.
