Spring Raffle and Auction raises over £1,200
Our Spring Raffle and Auction raises an amazing £1,283
The winners of our ever-popular Spring Raffle have been drawn and the final bids for the Spring Auction have been received. With the generous and brilliant support of raffle ticket holders and bidders, we raised an amazing £1,283.
Our Spring Raffle proved to be very popular, with people from as far away as Wales buying tickets in the hope of winning some of the amazing prizes!
With four prize winners, there was a chance to win tickets to BBC Gardener’s World Spring Fair at Beaulieu Motor Museum, lovely cream teas and an Amazon voucher. Garden-lovers could also get their hands on tickets to RHS Wisley in Surrey.
Our auction included beautiful artwork sets painted by Josh, who we support at Minstead Trust, cream teas at Bartley Lodge hotel, and a guided tour of Furzey Gardens with our Head Gardener. The auction alone raised £260.

The Spring Raffle and Auction is part of our fundraising work, which supports our services and social businesses at Minstead Trust. We support over 300 people with learning disabilities to fully develop their individual potential and lead happier and healthier lives.
Once again, we thank everyone for their kind support, and we hope the winners and bidders enjoy their experiences, as well as knowing they have helped to raise essential funds for our charity.
