“I decided to enter the NRAS Raffle last year, as I thought it was a good way to support the work of the charity. I viewed my entry as a donation and I never expected to win anything. So, when I was told I had won second prize I couldn’t believe it! I was absolutely stunned!
We used my winnings as spending money on our family holiday not long after.Thank you to NRAS for all the hard work and support you offer to those affected by RA, whether that is the individual themselves or their families.” - Jenni, second prize winner of 2021.
