Join us for 12 Christmas draws with cash prizes up to £5,000.*

Simply click Buy tickets on The Big PTA Christmas Raffle website then follow the instructions. You will be asked how many tickets you'd like and to select which PTA you would like to support, payment will be taken via a debit card (sorry we can’t take credit cards).

Each ticket costs £0.25 per draw. Via the site you can purchase a ticket for all 12 draws for £3. From the ticket price, 50% goes directly to your chosen PTA. 40% goes towards prizes and advancing Parentkind's charitable causes and 10% for the administration of the raffle.

Each of the 12 draws will have a guaranteed cash winner chosen at random from the entries. They will win up to £5,000* or, if we don’t sell our target of 50,000 tickets, 40% of the total proceeds.

Select Buy your tickets and find your PTA. You can search for your PTA by name, postcode, location or all three. Then, simply choose how many tickets you want.

You can search for your PTA by name, postcode, location or all three. If you still can’t find them in the list they may not have registered yet. If they are a Parentkind member please ask them to register via the PTA signup page.

Signing up is easy. We just need your name, email address, and postal address. We also need your date of birth to validate you are over 16.

The draw process is a raffle, whereby the winning ticket is chosen at random from all the eligible tickets for that draw. Each ticket is unique and has an equal chance of winning, including any additional tickets you may buy. The winning ticket will be selected at random using the online resource www.random.org who are independently verified for their random number generation using atmospheric noise. The winning number will be displayed on the website and we will email the winner to let them know.

The chances of winning vary according to the number of tickets sold. There is one prize of up to £5,000* in each draw.

Two draws will take place each day between the 13th December and the 18th December 2021.

All winners will be advised by email. The winning number will also be published on our website, Facebook and Twitter following each draw.

Your winnings will be paid directly into your nominated bank account or you can choose to donate your winnings back to the PTA you’re supporting.

Payment is via debit card only. The site is fully secure, PCI DSS compliant and we don’t store any card details.
