Raffles are a brilliant way for us to raise funds.  Last year our raffle made more than £3,000 to be spent on our work supporting blind and partially sighted people across our area. 

Buy your tickets by calling our Devizes office or emailing info@sightsupportwest.org.uk

The raffle is run by Sight Support West of England.  If you ask us to, we can restrict the money you pay to our work in Wiltshire.  Please make sure you ask us to do this.
