After the success of last year's beer advent raffle, I've decided to do it all again to raise vital funds for Trussell Trust!

I'm dedicating my Instagram feed to hosting an advent calendar-style raffle in aid of The Trussell Trust. 

The charity has emergency appeal on right now - this winter, food banks in their network are expecting to provide over one million emergency food parcels!

The soaring cost of living means more and more people are being forced to use food banks and this Christmas, so anything you can donate will certainly help.

My festive advent calendar raffle will take place through December with prizes announced every day from 1st December until New Year's Eve (extended due to the generosity of the community)!!! Raffle tickets are £5 for 1 entry or £10 for 3 entries – all you have to do, is donate a chosen amount and I’ll add your entry (or entries) into the my actual physical raffle bag for your chance to win each day! 

Over 30 breweries and my amazing beer buddies have donated to the raffle and the prizes are mega! I appreciate you all so much.What prizes can you win? The prize bundle is epic!

The entire bundle is worth over £3000 so far (because there’s still more prizes being confirmed)!!!!!
