A LAKE District community venue will be hosting a raffle.
The Gather at Ennerdale will be hosting a squirrel-based raffle.
Terry Abrahams, a wildlife filmmaker, did a talk at The Gather which was a great success.
He is incredibly passionate about red squirrels and recently made a film showing a group of red squirrels in Cumbria.
His talk at the venue has inspired a fundraiser.
A spokesperson at The Gather said: "Following a very successful showing of Terry Abrahams' film, The Gather decided to do a fundraiser to help the preservation of the valley's red squirrel population.
"During a trip to Ennerdale School in 2013, the artist Jackie Morris sighted a red squirrel crossing her path.
"The first prize is a print of the original painting."
