The Big Workies Rescue Draw
One national draw. A huge prize. A 133-year-old Welsh community landmark kept alive.
A building made by working people
The Workies was founded opposite the pit gates in 1893. For generations, it gave Tumble somewhere to meet, organise, celebrate and belong.
Now its future is uncertain. Our independent campaign is building the support, structure and professional case needed to keep it useful to the community.
The prize ambition
We want one prize so good that people across Great Britain want a ticket before they know where Tumble is.
Target value: up to £25,000
The final value and contents depend on confirmed partners. Nothing on this page is presented as donated until an agreement is in place.
A family holiday, flights, travel credit or a memorable Welsh break.
Television, sound, gaming, smart home and everyday technology.
A practical prize people will genuinely use every week.
Tickets, hospitality, signed items and experiences people cannot buy.
Food, stays, days out, local products and useful prizes from across Britain.
We want Tumble to become an early case study for communities taking ownership of the places that matter to them.
The campaign is working with Cwmpas, exploring Welsh Government funding routes and speaking with elected representatives. A meeting with Cefin Campbell MS is scheduled for 29 July 2026.
These conversations are not funding promises or endorsements. They show that a credible community route is being taken seriously.
Community places should not disappear simply because ordinary people were never given a realistic route to save them.
Choose the contribution that makes sense. We will build the partnership around it.
