The Promoter
The Promoter, under permit from the Superintendent of An Garda Siochána, Cork
City Division, is Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind, a company limited by
guarantee incorporated under the laws of Ireland with registered number 55616
(Registered Charity Number: 20009977 / Revenue Number: CHY 6006) having its
registered address at Model Farm Road, Cork T12 WT4A, Ireland (the
“Promoter”).
The Prize
The Prize is the opportunity to attend one meal (lunch or dinner) hosted by
Roy Keane (the “Event”) and to be accompanied at the Event by three (3)
additional guests of their choice (the “Prize”).
There will be two winners and two Prizes, each for the same Event.
The estimated maximum retail value of each Prize is approximately €500. The
exact retail value of the Prize is not ascertainable by the Promoter in
advance of the Raffle Draw. The Promoter has provided an estimate of the
likely maximum retail value of the Prize. The actual retail value of the Prize
may not be the same as the estimated maximum retail value. For the avoidance
of any doubt, the estimated maximum retail value included on the ticket is for
reference only and does not constitute an offer from the Promoter to the
winner to seek to claim a Prize at the estimated maximum retail value or at
any particular retail value.
The Event will take place in the Republic of Ireland at a location to be
determined by the Promoter.
The date and timing of the Event will be subject to the availability of Roy
Keane. The Promoter will consult with each winner to arrange a suitable date.
However, any date agreed may be subject to change by the Promoter at its
absolute discretion.
The Prize is not redeemable for cash or transferable to another person. No
alternative to the Prize will be offered. Any and all prize-related expenses,
all incidental costs incurred in attending the Event, including but not
limited to transport to and from the Event, accommodation and travel insurance
(if necessary), shall be the sole responsibility of the winners and their
respective guests.
The holding of the Event may be subject to legislative restrictions associated
with health protection that are beyond the control of the Promoter.
The winners will be bound by any terms imposed by third parties providing
goods and/or services forming part of the Prize. The Promoter accepts no
responsibility for the acts or omissions of third parties.
Neither the Promoter nor any sponsor accept any responsibility or liability to the winner for any dissatisfaction with the Prize. The Prize is provided “as is” and neither the Promoter nor any sponsor make any representation nor give any warranty in respect of the Prize.
Entry into the Raffle Draw
Entry to the raffle draw (the “Raffle Draw”) is by means of a raffle ticket specially commissioned by the Promoter. Raffle Draw tickets are priced at €10 each. Raffle Draw tickets will be available for purchase on the Promoter’s website https://www.guidedogs.ie/ from 25 May 2024 until 9am on 15 June 2024.
At the point of purchase of the raffle ticket, purchasers will be asked to provide the first and last name, e-mail address, postal address, and telephone number of the entrant to the Raffle Draw (the “Entrant”), which will be written on the ticket. Following successful online purchase, tickets will be emailed to the e-mail address provided by the purchaser. No more than one Entrant may be named on each ticket. The ticket shall be deemed to be owned by the person named on the ticket. On purchase of a raffle ticket for the Raffle Draw and completion of the details outlined above, the Entrant will be automatically entered into the Raffle Draw. The purchaser and Entrant shall retain a copy of these Rules for reference. The winning Entrants and their accompanying guests shall take part in any reasonable publicity relating to the Raffle Draw, if invited to participate by the Promoter.
Raffle tickets must be retained as proof of purchase. Failure to provide any of the foregoing information or accurate contact details at the point of purchase may result in inability on the part of the Promoter to contact the winner. The Promoter accepts no responsibility or liability to a winner for any failure on the part of a purchaser to provide full and accurate contact information.
The Raffle Draw is open to all residents of the Republic of Ireland aged 18 or over as at the date of the Raffle Draw who have been named as an Entrant on an Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind Raffle Draw ticket purchased between 25 May 2024 and up to 9am 15 June 2024, except those who at any time during the period commencing 25 May 2024 up to (and including) 15 June 2024 (the date on which the winners are selected) are trustees or employees of the Promoter or of any sponsor (or of any of the wholly owned subsidiaries of any sponsor) or any member of their respective households. The Promoter may, in its sole discretion, restrict or prohibit any person or persons from participation or further participation in the Raffle Draw if in its view that person or persons are playing in a manner deemed to be interfering with any other Entrant’s reasonable access to the Raffle Draw.
Winner selection
Each winning ticket will be drawn electronically by means of online raffle draw software and will be overseen by an independent judge, appointed by the Promoter for that purpose, on 15 June 2024, at Training Centre, Model Farm Road, Cork T12 WT4A. The independent judge will also draw 5 (five) additional tickets which will be recorded in the order in which they are drawn on a runners-up list. This will be witnessed by two witnesses present during the draw.
If the any of the two tickets that are first drawn electronically is illegible or otherwise invalid, or the Entrant is otherwise uncontactable, the Entrant named on the first ticket noted on the runners-up list will be awarded the Prize instead. If that ticket is also illegible or invalid, or the Entrant is otherwise uncontactable, the Entrant named on the second ticket noted on the runners-up list will be awarded the Prize. This will be repeated as necessary so as to result in two winners. The foregoing will be witnessed by two witnesses present during the electronic draw.
The decision of the Promoter as to each winner and the validity of any entry
is final and no correspondence with third parties will be entered into.
For the avoidance of doubt, where the purchaser of a winning Raffle Draw
ticket and the Entrant named on that Raffle Draw ticket are not the same
person, only the Entrant shall be awarded the Prize. The right to the Prize is
not transferrable.
How to claim
The Promoter will use reasonable endeavours to contact each winner within 5 weeks of the Raffle Draw using the contact details supplied upon purchase of their Raffle Draw ticket, and the names of the two winners who have successfully claimed a Prize each will be posted on the website of the Promoter – www.guidedogs.ie
The Promoter will not enter into correspondence with third parties and will
not use alternative contact details to those supplied upon purchase of the
raffle ticket.
Each winner must provide a valid government issued document evidencing proof
of eligibility as to age on collection of the Prize.
If a winner does not claim the Prize within three (3) days of being notified that they have won or is unable to provide a valid document evidencing proof of eligibility as to age, such winner waives the right to claim the Prize and the Prize will be awarded to the Entrant named on the ticket next drawn as noted on the runners-up list.
Publicity
Entrants agree and give consent (and will procure that their accompanying
guests will agree and consent) that, if they win and successfully claim a
Prize, the Promoter will have the right, without additional payment or
permission, to use their name, age, town of residence and likeness for the
purposes of announcing the winners of the Raffle Draw and for related
promotional purposes.
Restrictions
Individuals who circumvent or attempt to circumvent the rules and procedures
relating to the running of the Raffle Draw or who otherwise engage or attempt
to engage in any fraud or deception in relation to the Raffle Draw will not be
eligible to participate in the Raffle Draw.
If there are reasonable grounds to believe that there has been a breach of these Rules by an Entrant or by the purchaser of a Raffle Draw ticket, the Promoter may, in its sole discretion, invalidate the relevant entry and disqualify the Entrant from the Raffle Draw.
Promoter’s right to modify or cancel
The Promoter reserves the right in its sole discretion to modify, cancel,
terminate, or temporarily suspend the Raffle Draw (or any of the Rules of it)
at any time without notification, and with no liability to any entrant or any
third party.
If the Raffle Draw is not capable of being conducted as specified in these Rules, or in the event of a virus, a computer bug or unauthorised human intervention, or any other cause that is beyond the Promoter’s reasonable control, the Promoter reserves the right to substitute the Prize for cash value or for another prize of equal value.
Limitation of liability
The Promoter shall not, in any circumstances, be liable in contract, tort (including, without limitation, negligence) or otherwise for any loss (direct, indirect, or consequential) suffered or incurred by any Entrant or purchaser or any other person arising out of or connection with the Raffle Draw or from the participation by any person in the Raffle Draw. In particular, but without prejudice to the generality of this rule, the Promoter shall not be liable to any person;
- for the failure of, or damage or destruction to the Promoter’s computer system or records, or
- for delays, losses, errors, or omissions in or made by the postal or other delivery service or by the banking system, or
- for any other action or event which prevents or hinders the entry of a valid ticket.
The limitation of the Promoter’s liability herein has effect in relation both to any liability expressly provided for under these Rules and to any liability arising by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of any term of these Rules.
