Your Hospice Lottery is a weekly fundraising lottery. We work with hospices across the UK to help raise vital funds that will secure their future.
It only costs £1 per play, and you can choose to play every week or whenever you feel like taking a chance and doing something good for your chosen cause.
Our Hospice partners support people facing incurable illness and bereavement. Enabling our patients to die in dignity and be cared for in comfort with their family by their side. Our partners work tirelessly to make every moment matter for the patients and families in their care.
Hospice care is free of charge, but some hospices only receive limited statutory funding, which is why fundraising is so crucial. They need help now more than ever, so they can continue to provide the exceptional care for people who need their services now and in the future.
Your Hospice Lottery is owned and run by St Helena Hospice, a charity based in Colchester, Essex. Being a charity ourselves, we really understand the importance of raising funds that will allow patients and their loved ones to continue to receive the best care possible. This also means that 100% of profits go back into the charity sector.
We have over 20 years of experience of running and administering lotteries. St Helena Hospice Lottery began in 2001, and Your Hospice Lottery was formed in 2011 when we onboarded our first partner. We now support many hospices across the UK. By working together, we can give them a regular and reliable income that they can plan with.
