Shame it's auctions as I reckon those sort of experiences will raise far more money by doing it as raffles.

Say £10->£20 a ticket (depends on what it is) and more might be sold to those who can afford £20 but wouldn't dream of entering the auction to pay multiple thousands of pounds.

Hi there,

We are conscious that auctions aren't accessible to all, which is why this year we have two raffles available with tickets starting at just £5 so more people have chance to get involved
