Changes to our Hospiscare Lottery

From October 2024, we’ll be making some changes to our weekly lottery

From October 2024, we’ll be making some changes to our weekly lottery.

It’s a rollover!

As well as your weekly opportunity to win £1,000, players now have the chance to win a rollover prize of up to £5,000! If the rollover prize isn’t won after 19 weeks, £5,000 is guaranteed to be won by one lucky player!

Ticket prices

The Hospiscare Lottery started in May 2000, when a loaf of bread was 52p and a pint of beer was £2.07. Our £1 ticket price no longer stretches as far as it used to. As many of you are aware, our local charity is experiencing a funding crisis and while we’re continuing to lobby our local care board for fairer funding, we’ve made the decision to bring lottery ticket prices up to £2 in line with other charity lotteries around the country.

Why play?

Since those first tickets went on sale in 2000, our lottery has raised over £8,300,000! This funding has been instrumental in providing specialist end-of-life care to our patients and their families and it continues to be one of our most vital sources of income.
