The Wokingham borough community lottery, launched in June, is already raising money for good causes, benefiting the borough and its residents.
Many organisations have signed up as good causes, but there’s still plenty of room for more to join.
Good causes include local not-for-profit organisations, charities, schools and community groups such as Scouts and sports clubs.
The Community Lottery runs each Saturday. Tickets cost £1 per week with at least 50p going to good causes. The rest is split between prizes and running costs. There is a minimum play for one month.
Each week, players have a chance to win £25,000 if they match all six numbers.
When you play the lottery, you can choose who you want to support.
Businesses not meeting the requirements of being a good cause can still get involved.
Your support or sponsorship can help community projects in the borough. This benefits the community whilst also helping to fulfill your social value commitments.
Wokingham borough council plans to hold super draws throughout the year, where players can win multiple prizes. Examples of prizes include vouchers, memberships, dining and activity experiences.
If you would like to donate a prize for a super draw, email the Wokingham borough council community lottery team.
