Local people are being encouraged to support their local hospice by signing up to the St Giles Hospice Lottery, giving themselves the chance to win cash prizes, all while helping fund vital end of life care.
For just £1 per entry, players can win one of 55 guaranteed cash prizes every week, including a £1,000 jackpot. Regular lottery players, who sign up before Friday 4th September, are also automatically entered into the annual Superdraw, where one lucky winner will take home a guaranteed £10,000 cash prize when the draw takes place on Friday 16th October.
Every ticket sold helps St Giles Hospice continue providing specialist end of life care for local people, and their loved ones, living with a terminal illness. The weekly lottery is a vital source of income for the hospice, with lottery players raising more than £750,000 for the hospice in the past year alone.
Helen Curran, Individual Giving Manager at St Giles Hospice, said: “Our lottery is a simple way for people to make a real difference in their community. Every £1 ticket helps us continue to provide compassionate care for local people when they need us most.”
Previous winner, Colin Castree, said: “I was walking down the street, when I got the call: ‘Mr Castree, you’ve just won £1,000!’ I was stunned. Then I remembered, I’d won £5 in a previous lottery draw and used it to get five more tickets. One of those tickets turned out to be the winner!
The St Giles Hospice lottery is open to anyone aged 18 or over living in Great Britain.
