IOSF World Otter Day 2026 Raffle

Event date: Wednesday 27th May

Thank you for visiting our World Otter Day 2026 Raffle page and supporting this special Day - a world-wide celebration of otters.  We're very excited that this is World Otter Day's 10th anniversary.

IOSF World Otter Day takes place on the last Wednesday in May each year. The day was established by IOSF to draw attention to otters, celebrate them and raise awareness and support for their conservation globally. The aim is to put otters on the map, and at the forefront of people’s mind!
  
Funds raised help us to continue in our work protecting and conserving otters around the world in many ways from education and research, supporting advice for young cubs found in other countries, helping sanctuaries for otters rescued from the illegal fur and pet trades and our own sanctuary here on the Isle of Skye.  Because people like you care, the reach is growing year on year.

One ticket = one entry = £5.00
See images of the prizes after the description below.  We will also post these in our socials.
