Competitions form an important part of AICR's fundraising efforts. Not only do they raise millions of pounds for vital research, but they provide our supporters with fun and an opportunity to win some great prizes while helping us at the same time.
Since 1985 our Prize Draws have raised £56,180,683 and our Raffles have raised £6,631,922. This is a huge amount of money and has allowed us to fund cutting edge research into cancer all over the world. The full list of prizes and winners is simply too long to show on this page, but here are the facts and figures from the past couple of years. We would like thank the many hundreds of thousands of our supporters who have taken part.
Since the end of 2004, AICR has had 947 winners!
