Second and third prizes have been donated by Althams and Bertrams.

Sammi Graham, Pendleside’s head of events and marketing, said: “We are very excited because it’s the first time we have raffled an expensive luxury holiday and the winner has the choice to choose wherever they want to go in the next two years.

“The winner has the chance for it to be for themselves, a couple or for a group of people, so it could be, for example, girls’ trip to Ibiza, a family holiday to Disney World or a couple’s holiday in the Caribbean.

“And at this time of year why not buy the raffle tickets as a Christmas gift for a family member or friend.”
