Does the charity provide tickets for fundraising by schools, other charities or organisations?
It is not the objective of the charity to help other charities or organisations to raise money.
Therefore, applications for tickets to be used for raffles, auctions or other fundraising, or for cash grants, will not be considered.
Attractions may be able to provide discounted tickets or other offers, so please contact them directly.

Can I receive help towards the cost of travel?
In some instances we may be able to contribute towards the cost of travel to your nearest Merlin Entertainments attraction. We are unable to contribute to overseas travel.
Contributions towards travel are not guaranteed and are completely at our discretion. For residents outside of the UK full bank details are required should a contribution be required. Contributions are based on your nearest Merlin attraction.
As travel contributions take up to 35 days to process we unfortunately cannot guarantee you will receive this before your travel date, please take this into consideration before making an application.
