SECRET World Wildlife Rescue has announced the launch of its ‘Summer Holidays’ fundraising raffle.
The East Huntspill-based wildlife charity is offering a broad range of prizes - worth more than £1,000 - to help people get out and about this summer.
These include family passes for days out at local attractions, tickets for workshops and experiences, supermarket vouchers to help plan a summer barbecue, and dinner vouchers for local bars and restaurants.
David Plant, fundraising officer at Secret World Wildlife Rescue, said: “Many of us have spent the best part of the year in our homes and now’s the time to start planning for what should be an epic summer!
“As restrictions ease and venues and attractions are opening up again, we want to help people make the most of it.
“Most of the prizes are valid until May/June 2022, so there’s no rush to use them this summer if Covid-19 is a concern for you.
“Thanks to a number of very generous donations from companies and individuals we’re able to offer our supporters a fantastic range of prizes in our new raffle.
“It’s been another tough year for fundraising, with all of our public fundraising events cancelled.
“We’ve really missed seeing everyone, but our work caring for injured and orphaned animals continues behind closed doors.
“We’re in the middle of a very busy orphan season right now, so we hope that you will consider buying a few tickets to help the animals in our care.
“It’s so nice to be able to give something back and say thanks for the kind support we’ve received from the local community.”
Tickets cost £2 each and can be purchased here.
Entries close at midnight on Wednesday, July 7, and winners will be notified shortly afterwards.
