Annual Raffle
Each year the PBC Foundation holds a national raffle. We send out books of raffle tickets to our members for sale to friends, family and work colleagues. The money raised from the sale of those tickets is vital to help us to provide our services and continued support.
This year’s raffle tickets will be available with the May 2010 issue
of the Bear Facts so to those of you who were not lucky last year, you
might be in 2010. Remember: “You’ve got to be in it to win it”.
Tickets cost 1p each (£5 per book of five), if you would like us to
send you tickets to sell or to give to someone to sell on your behalf
please
e-mail us here at the office at with the amount of tickets you would like.
Congratulations to all of our winners and thank you to all of you who
bought the tickets as without you this raffle would not have been
possible. After payment of prizes and printing costs, around £3,200
was raised by the selling of the raffle tickets; this will go a long
way to help us continue to provide our much needed services. The annual raffle was drawn on 30 October 2009 and the lucky winners are as follows:
First Prize (£250)
John Dempster, Lochgelly, Fife
