 A new way for local good causes to raise money is coming this autumn with the launch of Hertsmere Community Lottery.
Hertsmere Community Lottery helps community groups, sports clubs, heritage groups, voluntary organisations and other good causes to raise funds by selling lottery tickets to their supporters.
It is completely free to register and for every £1 ticket bought, organisations will receive 50p directly back to them, with a further 10p going to a Hertsmere general good causes fund. This compares to just 28p in the pound for the National Lottery, 27.5p from the Postcode Lottery and 20% from the Health Lottery going into good causes.
Supported by Hertsmere Borough Council, Hertsmere Community Lottery enables local people to support local organisations and groups, whilst being in with the chance of winning a £25,000 cash prize through the weekly prize draw. Other cash prizes include £2,000, £250, £25 or three free tickets.
Interested groups are encouraged to come along to an online launch event at 11am on Wednesday 13 October to find out more about the community lottery and how to sign up.
