Why not take part in a charity raffle to raise money for rainforest concern

WIN A PAIR OF BEAUTIFUL BRASS POISON DART FROGS

Sculptor John Milner is raffling a pair of beautifully sculpted brass poison dart frogs to raise money for Rainforest Concern.  Most of John's art and sculpture is based on animals from the rainforest so he is kindly donating the pair to aid with fundraising. 

These small brass sculptures (about 60 x 40mm) are more or less life size - to some of the larger poison dart frogs anyway! They would normally retail at £48 each, but you could win both of them for a £1 raffle ticket, and help raise money for an essential cause. The rainforests are our planets lungs... go on... buy a strip of tickets! 

The winner will be drawn on the evening of Sunday 3rd July at the end of the Hebden Bridge Open Studios weekend, in the bar of the Trades Club. They're easy to post if you can't be there.

Other ways of fundraising

There are many ways you can fundraise to help save the rainforest. Raising money can be a great character building exercise not to mention all the fun involved! We have had money raised for Rainforest Concern from a huge variety of imaginative events, or you can nominate Rainforest Concern when you participate in a larger organised event, like the Flora London Marathon.

Here are three organised events you can take part in:
