Community raises £285,600 for GBC Open Day

GBC Open Day has raised an amazing £285,600 thanks to donations from the public.

This year's marathon day of fundraising began on the Radio Gibraltar roadshow at the Piazza, and finished in the studio with a packed night of entertainment, donations and of course, plenty of festive spirit.

An amazing amount to close out a year of fund-raising as the 2025 Open Day came to an end.

The community has once again given generously of their time, as well as their money.

From the Big Sale, Radio Gibraltar roadshow, punch a prize tickets, to tickets for the much sought-after car, every penny, pound or big cheque has contributed to the incredible amount.

With it being her first Open Day as CEO. Paula Latin said it was a magnificent community effort.

The evening's entertainment included comedy sketches, bloopers showing where your money goes and the reveal of the winner of the Mitsubishi Colt, Maria Gloria Macedo.

Popular favourites like 1,2,3 Taco saw people sprinting to Ben Lynch for a chance to win prizes and the Treasure Hunt once again saw huge participation.

Like last year the unique license sold and there are still items from the Big Sale available to purchase and these can be seen on our website.

Last year saw a huge amount raised for local charities and this year was no different, an incredible amount that will make a difference in people's lives.
