Make your Xmas a cracker!

Support Action for Children to be in with a chance to win £1,000

As part of our ongoing charitable partnership with Action for Children, we are offering colleagues the opportunity to raise money for the charity by purchasing Christmas crackers.

A total of 10,000 crackers will be sold over the next two months at £2 per cracker, as we aim to raise £20,000 for the charity, which specialises in supporting young people who have, or who are at risk of developing, mental health problems.

And as well as raising money for a fantastic cause, every cracker purchased puts you in with a chance of winning up to £1,000 in cash. We are placing golden tickets inside 61 of the crackers and anyone who finds a golden ticket inside their cracker will be entered into a prize draw offering prizes of up to £1,000.
