Get into the festive spirit and support local good causes this Christmas!

Date
Local good causes

By participating in the North Herts Community Lottery, you are directly supporting charitable causes and groups within your local area.

The lottery costs £1 a ticket per week, and 50p of your £1 goes directly to the good cause you are choosing to support, with 10p going into a general North Herts council good cause fund.

The lottery is a win-win – you’re contributing towards charitable causes whilst also being in with a chance of winning a prize every week!

In 2024 (as of the latest draw), £7900 of prize money has been awarded to residents in North Herts! Over 500 people have won a prize this year, whether this has been £2000, £250, £25 or 3 extra tickets into the lottery. The lottery also raises around £27,000 worth of good cause funding annually!

Christmas is a great time to enter our lottery as there is a Christmas Super Draw running, being drawn on Saturday 21 December. This means that you’ll also be in with the chance of winning an extra £3000 prize!

Also don’t forget that you can even buy gift cards for the lottery! Give a loved one an extremely unique and special gift this year by giving them the chance to support their community and win extra prizes too!

Cllr Val Bryant, North Herts Council’s Executive Member for Community, praises the lottery highly:

“The Community Lottery offers North Herts residents a fantastic chance to support local good causes but also be in for a chance to win something from it themselves. The variety of causes on our Lottery means that we have a cause suitable for everyone to support.”

With 55 local good causes signed up to the lottery, there’s plenty of choice for who and where you would like to support in the community!

We have 55 good causes signed up currently, but we are always looking for more to grow the lottery and increase funding for them! If you are a North Herts based good cause and are interested in joining the lottery to increase your funding – sign up today to start receiving money from ticket sales!
