Dear Oaks Family
We’re jingling all the way into the festive season, and we need your help to make our Christmas 2025 Raffle the most magical one yet!
We’re on the hunt for fabulous raffle prizes—think gift sets, vouchers, experiences, quirky treats, or anything that might make someone say, “Ooooh, I want that!”

Why? Because every ticket sold helps fund residential trips for our 140 amazing young learners with disabilities and complex needs. These trips aren’t just a getaway—they’re a chance to build independence, confidence, and friendships that last a lifetime. For some, it’s even their first time away from home, so we have to make it epic!

So, if you or your business can donate a prize, you’ll be helping us give these young people something truly special: freedom, fun, and unforgettable memories.
Drop us a message if you can help 🎄

With sleigh bells and gratitude
The Mighty Oaks
