Still time to get tickets for Exeter Community Lottery Exeter Community Lottery

There’s just over a week to go before the first tickets are drawn in Exeter’s Community Lottery and already the initiative has raised nearly £24,000 for good causes.

The first draw will be made on Saturday 22 July, and everyone taking part is in with a chance of winning a top prize of £25,000.

Already hundreds of tickets have been sold in Exeter and there’s still time to but one ahead of the first draw. People have a one in 50 chance of winning a prize.

So far 73 community groups, organisations and good causes have signed up to the Exeter Community Lottery.

When people buy tickets they can choose which cause they would like to support. Fifty pence in every pound then goes to that cause, and 10p goes into a central pot to support other good causes.

A guaranteed 60 per cent of the ticket proceeds goes to good causes, with the remainder going on prizes and operating costs.

Cllr Martin Pearce, Lead Councillor with responsibility for Communities, said: “Now it’s down to the people of Exeter to get behind the Community Lottery and help support the community groups, organisations and good causes that make up the heartbeat of this great city.”

People will need to make sure they have a ticket before the first draw is made on 22 July. Draws will then take place on a weekly basis.
