All you have to do is send a donation (big or small, it all counts) to our Virgin Money Account and your name will be selected from a hat (or bowl). If you are selected for one of the gifts you will be notified by us. Simple, right?

Please donate here: https://bit.ly/3nI27ZS Also, remember to add an email address or contact number so we can reach you.
