We've had a debate in our workplace today about this and I'm interested in more views

A local healthcare provider has a Christmas raffle to raise funds to improve the service for users and some of the prizes are alcohol

N.B This is not a specific alcohol reduction service however some users may have issues relating to alcohol use

YANBU: No, alcohol should not be a prize from a healthcare service

YABU: Chill out and enjoy the raffle

Nobody is going to buy a raffle ticket if the prize is a cabbage.

Some users may have issues about anything, so probably shouldn't buy a ticket. Everyone else can chill out and enjoy the raffle

I don’t think it’s appropriate, no.

Remember they are also a work place so the food outlets are catering to staff as well.
