Thorpe Park ticket win - advice needed

Hi guys, I won two tickets through a Dr Pepper promotion (the Pepperhood) and they arrived in the post today. Problem being that they have "Issued to Jennifer Webb" printed on the ticket, not my name :S
The tickets also have an "insert this way" barcode on the ticket so it may not even matter that they are printed with the wrong name, they may just go through a ticket machine but I'm reluctant to take the chance as to get to the theme park there are several hours travel involved and it would be a shame to get all the way there just to get turned away.
I've checked the email win confirmation and it's a no reply email address and the letter that I've received from them with the tickets is just a generic "Dear Winner" letter with no contact details on it.
I was wondering if anyone knew of a contact address/email/number for the Dr Pepper marketing team I've tried googling and found nothing.
Any help would be great

I recently won ticekts for the parks and the name on the tickets was the person who they had been issued to...i.e. the promotions company so you should be fine.0

Ah that's brilliant. I thought that would be the case but was going to ring or email to make sure.0
