Raffle

Each year BlytheCon UK supports a charity, often working in the region of the host city.

With excitement, BlytheCon UK would like to share that we will be supporting @thehedgehogsociety as our 2026 chosen charity.

The British Hedgehog Preservation Society does fabulous work to help our sweet & spiky, yet very vulnerable, garden friends. In their own words, “Through our campaigns, advocacy and educational projects we work to raise awareness of the practical steps we can take to help reverse the decline of hedgehogs in the wild, improve their welfare and safeguard the future of this much-loved animal. We also fund research that provides important new insights into the conservation and welfare of hedgehogs.”

We know that the raffle is a very popular part of the event, and BCUK would never ask for donations to profit from. Every penny of raffle tickets sales as well as the proceeds from the bring & buy secondhand stall (which is 10% of each attendee seller’s sale) always go to a chosen charity.

The famous BlytheCon UK raffle is largely made up of generous prize donations from our dolly community. From outfits to photos to custom dolls to accessories to services to Blythe-themed swag: we are grateful for every item as it helps to make a fun day while supporting a good cause! 

We hope you’ll consider donating to the raffle if you are a maker (etc.), and will take part if attending! 

Keep an eye out in coming months for how you can donate to the 2026 raffle to bring some extra fun to the event and support this excellent cause.

Thank you for all your support!
