Get In The Running To Win A Mini With CLAN

A brand new Mini will soon make its final pit stop before being raffled to raise money for a leading north-east cancer support charity.

The car, which was kindly sponsored by Domino’s Pizza, will take pride of place in the Bon Accord & St Nicholas shopping centre in Aberdeen next month (November) prior to finding a new owner in CLAN Cancer Support’s Christmas Eve raffle.

The charity has travelled throughout north-east Scotland with the Mini selling raffle tickets at a range of shows and exhibitions. Members of the public will be able to put themselves in the running to win it by buying a ticket at the Bon Accord mall, CLAN charity shops or their base on Westburn Road in Aberdeen.

Susan Crighton, CLAN fundraising manager, said: “We are looking forward to giving someone the ultimate Christmas present this year in the form of our brand new Mini. Domino’s Pizza very generously donated the car to us this year which we are very grateful for as the raffle is a hugely important fundraising event for us which gets a lot of support from the public.

“It has been on a great tour of the north-east over the past few months, helping us spread awareness of CLAN. It will now be in the Bon Accord mall until the draw on Christmas Eve and we would like to thank the centre for its continued support.”

Craig Stevenson, manager of Bon Accord & St Nicholas, said: “We are pleased to be able to provide the Mini with a temporary home until the raffle draw on Christmas Eve which we are sure will be popular with shoppers in the mall in the busy festive period.

“CLAN is our charity of the year and our staff have had great fun throughout the year undertaking activities to support it. CLAN is involved in invaluable work throughout the north-east and we hope people take the chance to enter the raffle draw and get behind their efforts.”
