as per what Morfx pointed out above, it may need to be liscenced depending on prize on offer and monies raised etc.

Plenty of gambling degenerates in the Wonderful People Facebook Group.
Why not go there? Did they kick you out?
Raffles will seriously f#ck up this forum.
But hey, not my forum, is it......

I done a give away, where I video'd the the pick a winner from a saucepan..
It worked fine.
As long as it's seen to be legit, I can't see the issue.

raffle for a print allowed on here?, by prawns on Jan 31, 2021 18:47:28 GMT 1, Funny you mention this. We run three very successful raffle companies in the uk and macau
Itโs legal in the UK but there are many minefields and best to engage a competent solicitor to advise you what to do.....weโve given away two banksy prints in raffles which sold out fast. Tickets were realistically proved with great odds.
We are in the process of creating a site just for signed prints.

raffle for a print allowed on here?, by Happy Shopper on Jan 31, 2021 18:58:38 GMT 1, I think someone did a charity raffle a while back.
Good for the winner, but I guess it was also a way to write off a load of tax!?

The organiser had it away with the funds.
Wouldnโt be surprised.
Donations would have to be made direct to some sort of website that shows total donations, and canโt be messed with... like a kickstarter type deal.

raffle for a print allowed on here?, by kashi on Jan 31, 2021 19:10:38 GMT 1, aha .. the old 'illegal rave' defense Onket! I think the clue might be in the 1st of those words, but really, we've had lots of raffles on here before, no bother?
I've donated a print to charity raffle here before, and know that it got paid for and am pretty sure that the money went where it should have done

See my thread:
urbanartassociation.com/thread/168399/faile-giveaway-samaritans-donation-optional
Worked out really well and a good amount of money donated to a worthwhile charity.
Not sure about a raffle for personal gain but each to their own.

raffle for a print allowed on here?, by covertshadowops on Jan 31, 2021 21:36:38 GMT 1, I assumed there would be both sides of the fence on this opinion.
My suggestion would only be print less than ยฃ1k in value, with a charitable donation of some of the money and not profit off the raffle and actually make a loss on the print of which it was acquired. (Cost price)
Just trying to create some good Will in getting something for say a tenth of the cost, for example, in these challenging times.

I've donated a print to charity raffle here before, and know that it got paid for and am pretty sure that the money went where it should have done It's a well known loophole. It's illegal to sell alcohol without a licence but not to sell a raffle ticket in a raffle where every ticket wins a can of beer. Therefore no probs holding a raffle. Doesn't matter if it's an illegal rave, a private party, a church fete or a messageboard.
Been to a few events where you paid a certain amount of money for plastic tokens that are then exchanged for alcohol. Itโs a great little loophole!

Are you sure that wasnโt Arthur Fowler and the Christmas Club money?

Here there is too much anonymity which allows more dodgy behaviour.
