5.4 Age verification is required at the point of online entry. The Foyle Hospice website prevents any person from adding entries to their basket unless they confirm their date of birth and indicate that they are aged 18 or over.

6.3 Winners will be selected by a verifiably random process. The draw will be witnessed and documented.
6.4 Each prize will be drawn separately. An entrant may win more than one prize unless otherwise stated.
6.5 The decision of the Promoter is final. No correspondence or discussion will be entered into regarding the conduct or outcome of the draw.

7. The Prizes
7.1 The prizes for this draw are those listed on the relevant Leigh Thurston – In Memory Fundraising prize draw page on the Foyle Hospice website as published on the Effective Date, and that prize list is incorporated into these Terms and Conditions by reference.
7.2 All prizes have been donated by third-party businesses and are subject to availability. Prize details are correct at the time of publication. The Promoter reserves the right to substitute any prize with a prize of equal or greater value if a donated prize becomes unavailable for any reason outside the Promoter’s control.
7.3 Prizes are non-transferable and non-exchangeable. No cash alternative will be offered unless stated.
7.4 Prize values stated are approximate and based on information provided by the donating businesses. The Promoter makes no warranty as to the accuracy of stated values.
7.5 Winners are responsible for all travel and ancillary costs associated with redeeming or using their prize after it has been awarded. The prize is the experience or voucher as described only. Travel, accommodation (where not included in the prize), and any other associated costs are the winner’s sole responsibility.
7.6 Where prizes include experiences outside Northern Ireland, winners are responsible for compliance with all applicable entry requirements, travel arrangements, and any associated costs.
7.7 All prize vouchers and experiences are subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant donating business. The Promoter accepts no liability for any issue arising from the redemption or use of a prize by the winner.
7.8 Prizes must be claimed within 28 days of notification. Failure to claim within this period may result in the prize being forfeited and awarded to the next eligible entrant selected from the draw.

8. Notification of Winners
8.1 The Promoter will contact winners as soon as practicable after the Draw Date using the contact details provided at the time of entry.
8.2 If a winner cannot be contacted within 14 days of the Draw Date, or fails to claim their prize within 28 days of notification, the Promoter reserves the right to award the prize to the next eligible entrant selected from the draw.
8.3 Winners may be required to provide proof of identity and proof of age before a prize is awarded.
8.4 It is the entrant’s responsibility to ensure that the contact details provided at the time of entry remain accurate. If your personal details, including contact information, change at any time after entry, you must notify the Promoter as soon as reasonably possible by emailing fundraising@foylehospice.com or writing to the Foyle Hospice Fundraising Office, 61 Culmore Road, Derry~Londonderry, BT48 8JE. Notifications must include the competition name, your old details, and your new details. If your contact details change within 10 days of the Closing Date, the Promoter will use the most recent details reasonably available to it at the relevant time.
8.5 All prizes must be claimed by the winner personally. The Promoter may require the winner to provide reasonable evidence of identity and age before a prize is released. Wherever reasonably practicable, verification will be carried out remotely. A winner will not be required to incur a cost simply to claim a prize, save for any ordinary cost of responding by standard rate post, standard rate telephone call, or email. Where a prize donor requires in-person attendance to redeem or use an experience, that requirement relates to redemption or use of the prize and not to claiming the prize itself.
8.6 The surname and county of major prize winners may be published on the Foyle Hospice website and Leigh Thurston’s social media channels, or otherwise made available, in order to demonstrate that the draw was properly conducted. If you object to all or part of that information being published or made available, you must notify the Promoter before the Closing Date. In such circumstances, the Promoter may still disclose relevant winner information to the Advertising Standards Authority or any other regulator on request.

9. Entry Fees
9.1 Except where a refund is required by law, or where there has been a duplicate payment, processing error, or cancellation of the draw, entry fees for valid online entries are non-refundable once processed. If you believe an error has occurred in connection with your entry, please contact the Foyle Hospice Fundraising Office at 61 Culmore Road, Derry~Londonderry, BT48 8JE or by email at fundraising@foylehospice.com as soon as possible and your query will be considered on its merits.
9.2 No refund will ordinarily be given where an entrant is later found to be ineligible, is disqualified for any reason, or where the draw proceeds but the entrant does not win a prize, save where a refund is required by law or where the Promoter determines that a refund is appropriate in the particular circumstances.
9.3 Given the fundraising nature of this draw, the net proceeds of online entries, after deduction only of card processing charges applied by the payment merchant, are donated to Foyle Hospice. By paying for online entry, entrants acknowledge that the majority of the amount paid is intended to support Foyle Hospice as well as to secure entry into the draw.

11.2 The Promoter will not cancel the draw solely due to a lower than anticipated number of entries being received. The draw will proceed on the Draw Date regardless of the number of entries received.
11.3 The Promoter will not extend the Closing Date of this draw simply to sell more entries. Any extension to the Closing Date will only be made where genuinely necessary and will be communicated via the Foyle Hospice website and social media channels with reasonable notice.
11.4 The Promoter reserves the right to amend these Terms and Conditions only where necessary to comply with applicable law, to reflect circumstances outside the Promoter’s reasonable control, to correct obvious errors or omissions, or to address fraud, abuse, security, or technical issues. No amendment will materially disadvantage entrants who have already entered. Any amendment will be published on the Foyle Hospice website as soon as reasonably practicable.

12. Data Protection and Privacy
