Riot Raffle



This week I donated a prize to the Riot Raffle.

I have huge admiration for the very lovely Zoe Grant who is the organiser behind it all. Zoe has brought together the creative community to support the independant businesses who suffered at the mindless violence and vandalism of the riots in London earlier this month.

Karmen Shopper (filled with more goodies) donated to Riot Raffle

Over 80 independant businesses have stepped forward to help those who need it get back up on their feet again. And I have to say the prizes are fantastic. It really is heart warming to think that at the worst of times there are always people who are there to help and support others and if I were ever in their shoes someone would be there to help me.

Raffle tickets can be bought in multiples of £1 and all the monies donated will go to Retail Trust who are helping the retailers and their families affected through this difficult time.

Right I will stop waffling on and give you the specifics, if you would like to read more about Riot Raffle click here. If you want to learn more about Retail Trust and what they do click here. If you would like to buy a ticket and be in with a chance to win a fab prize click here.
