Supporting Wiltshire Air Ambulance could bring you some festive cash

The festive raffle is a popular fundraiser for Wiltshire Air Ambulance, and this year they're asking for our support more than ever.

Tickets for the draw are £1 each, with a top prize of £3,000 for the winner.

There's also runners-up prizes for £500, £100 and £25.

All the money raised through the raffle will go towards keep the Wiltshire Air Ambulance flying.

It costs a total of £3.75 million a year to maintain the life-saving service, which works out as more than £10,000 every day.

Rebecca de la Bedoyere, trusts, legacies and lotteries manager at Wiltshire Air Ambulance, said:

"It has been a testing time for our charity. The aircrew have been on the front line throughout the Coronavirus pandemic to ensure we can be there for those who need us most.

"At the same time, our fundraising events have all been postponed or cancelled, restricting our opportunities to generate vital funds. Our raffle is therefore a vital source of income, with every ticket bought meaning we can continue our lifesaving work.

"As well as helping your local air ambulance by playing the raffle, you will have a chance of winning a prize - what a great way that would be to end this difficult year!"
