I have been advised by Zoey of the EE Customer Complaints team to post a community topic. I'm a personal EE customer (since Orange) but also an Admin of GlastoGals, a Facebook Group with 15k members. We are associated with Glastonbury Festival Fans, another Facebook Group with 61k members.
We are running a Charity Raffle in advance of Glastonbury Festival 2025 with loads of amazing prizes, including festival experiences and items from artistes which cannot be bought! Would EE like to participate in some free advertising?
We have donations of signed merchandise from FatBoySlim, Coldplay, BeansOnToast and Michael Eavis himself, along with backstage experiences from West Holts and Arcadia. And the list of prize donations is growing daily (plus Octopus have made a generous cash donation for the charities).
Here's a link to SJ Smallpage's preview about the raffle. SJ organised the huge "Peace" symbol at the festival a few years ago, and is an Admin of both Facebook groups:

This is the website she has set up, where you can see details of the prizes and buy tickets NOW: https://greatfest.co.uk/
The licensed raffle went LIVE on New Year's Day and has already raised over £4k in donations within it's first week.
All proceeds from the raffle will be split between Festival Medical Services, BRCA+ Chat (Breast & Ovarian cancer charity) & The Mary Stevens Hospice. With 75k members between the Facebook groups, we are hoping to raise several thousand pounds.
Here are examples of the prizes donated so far:
- Coldplay guitar string bracelet & signed album
- Sam Fender guitar string bracelet
- Fat Boy Slim signed poster
- Coldplay signed CD
- Billy Bragg signed book
- Frank Turner signed LP
- Beans on Toast goodie bag
- Worthy fm prize and other Glastonbury Festival prizes and experiences
- Rosa Bloom clothing
- Glastonbury Free Press limited edition poster signed by Michael Eavis
- Back stage pass to West Holts stage and visit to the pit during a live performance for 4 guests
- 5 night stay for the festival in a Deluxe Bell Tent for two guests at Ziggucamp with champagne
- 2 nights in the Yellow Submarine / American School Bus glamping
- Hotel Harmony 2 x day passes
- Inner Sanctum 2 hr spa pass
- Dinner for 2 Friday Deluxe Diner
- Tickets to Reading Festival, Latitude festival, Lakefest festival and Tetfest festival other major festivals and more
With the support of EE we could have an amazing prize that I know people would want to win!
You would make such a difference to our fundraising, if you could offer a unique prize for our raffle?
Thank you so much for your time.
