Raffle tickets are a vital source of income for us. Last year over £8.4 million was raised to fund our vital work. And mostly from people who sold no more than a couple of ticket books each.

It may only seem like a handful of tickets, but we rely on our fantastic supporters to make this huge difference. With your support, we can help rebuild lives devastated by sight loss.

Interesting facts about ticket selling

• If everyone sold just two more tickets, an extra £1,000,000 would be raised.
• Many people like to buy raffle tickets on behalf of their friends and family, either as a gift or a just a fun way to include them in the draw.
• When you return the ticket stubs and unsold tickets to us, you may deduct the cost of the return postage from the proceeds. However if everyone paid for the stamp, it would add up to an extra £92,000.

How your money helps

Every ticket you sell makes a difference to the life of someone with sight problems.

For every pound, RNIB spends 87p directly helping blind and partially sighted people, 11p on raising more vital funds and 2p on administration.
