Cambridgeshire Community Lottery - Cambridgeshire Community Foundation

What is the lottery?

A fun and effective way for local charities and community organisations to fundraise and engage with supporters.
The lottery enables people to support the causes they care about while having the chance to win something in return.
A ticket costs just £1 a week. 50p from every ticket will support the player’s chosen charity and another 10p will support other good causes across the county.
Players have a 1 in 50 chance of winning a prize each week, with a top prize of £25,000.

Charities, community groups, sports clubs, CICs and schools, among other good causes, can all apply to be a part of the lottery, and every ticket sold will help to boost causes across the county.

Why become one of the lottery’s good causes?
