Blanket raffle · 13 December 2023

As the East Midlands’ only hospice for children and young people, we brighten the short lives of babies, children and young people who come to Rainbows. We want them to have fun and make special memories. We are also here to support their loved ones through the most difficult times of their lives.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. This is a slightly different fundraiser - wanting to raise money for Rainbows, but knowing that I’m unlikely to climb Kilimanjaro any time soon I decided to go down the creative route.

By supporting me and this fantastic charity, for every £5 you donate I’ll add your name in to a draw to win this wonderfully warm blanket.

Measuring approximately 142 cm x 99cm/ 4.6ft x 3.25 ft this is perfect for cosy nights in snuggling on the sofa or stargazing in the open wilds.

And Just in case you don’t think this has been a challenge - by the time this is finished there will be;

- over 60 hours of work

- .More than 41,000 stitches

- 420 ends sewn in

- almost 3.5km of yarn used

-> £37 worth of yarn

It’s made from 12 different colours of Stylecraft Speciall DK yarn, which is 100% acrylic, soft, warm and washable.

I’ll draw the winner on 20th December and get in touch for your address to post or deliver (if you are local), so please make sure I have some way of getting in touch!

Good luck and thank you for your support!
