Today's Great Deal race across Europe for Build Aid...

As most of you will know, two members of the Today's Great Deal team have entered the Cannonball Run. The reason for our entry in the race is in aid of the charity Build Aid UK.

Over the course of this week, we have been running a competition on our Facebook Page, to see who could guess the make of the car we will be competing in, and we can now announce that there were only two correct entries, so we have decided to give them both a prize. The winners are Sunny Purewal and Jennifer Loftus, who guessed correctly with an Audi R8 !! Unfortunately there were no correct answer on the Edinburgh page, but don't worry we have more great competitions coming up soon !!


Build Aid is a UK Registered Charity formed in February 2005, following the 2004 south East Asian tsunami.

Build Aid provide construction aid, offer professional pro-bono advice, and conduct construction management for rebuilding projects undertaken by community groups, NGO's, not-profit-making organisations and government departments.

Today's Great Deal is aiming to raise £25,000 to help Build Aid reach their target of £250,000, and with a  total amount of £10,000 raised already, we are hoping to reach this target fairly quickly.

Lending a helping hand...

At Today's Great Deal, we like to give back as much as we can, and work with what we feel are truly deserving charities.

Recently we donated various raffle prizes to Children's Aid, for the Ayesha Appeal. Ayesha was diagnosed with leukaemia in April 2011. The family are now working with Anthony Nolan to urgently find her a match from the charity’s register of potential donors.

Children's Aid (Scotland) Ltd is run by a group of professionals and business people who all give their time voluntarily. There are no paid employees.

So the other day, we received a letter from Children's Aid, stating that at their last event, where we donated prizes, they raised just over £51,000 !! With their total amount now standing at £124,800 !!

A truly fantastic effort by all involved ! We wish you the best of luck for finding a suitable donor for Ayesha, and we were honoured to be a part of it.
