Dorset County Hospital Digital Mammography Appeal is hoping to raise money for their 2011 appeal by selling raffle tickets with the prize of a wedding in West Dorset for £1.
Neil Strudwick of Goldcrest Jewellers in Dorchester came up with the idea and BOOST is very grateful to him for the chance to raise money for this appeal. Neil also generously donated a pair of diamond earrings which were auctioned as part of the Dorset Echo appeal earlier in the spring.
Raffle tickets can be bought from many of the businesses who have offered to make one couple's day one to remember:
Wedding Rings - Goldcrest Jewellers, Dorchester
Ceremony Venue - Bennetts Water Garden, Weymouth
Reception Venue - The Old Ship Inn, Upwey, Weymouth
Wedding Cake - Arty Party Cakes, Weymouth

Flowers - Jackaranda, Weymouth
Hair and Beauty - I D Hair, Dorchester

The tickets will be on sale from 22nd July 2011 at many of the above businesses and various other outlets and the draw will be made at The Wedding Fayre, Bennetts Water Gardens on 18 September 2011.

Thanks to the fantastic support we received since we launched the appeal in February 2011, the appeal has reached the £450,000 mark. With a number of fundraising events planned for the New Year, we are optimistic that we will reach our final target very soon.
We are delighted to announce that the Trust has just placed an order for the actual scanner equipment. Shortly further orders for the building work required to house the unit will be placed as well.
To celebrate the end of the appeal and to express our thanks to the many many people and groups who have shown such wholehearted support to the appeal, we are currently planning a formal final fundraising event on Wednesday 25th April, Corn Exchange Dorchester.
