Warrington Community Lottery

Sign up, sell tickets, it's a win-win!

Warrington Community Lottery is an exciting weekly lottery that raises money for good causes in Warrington.

All tickets sold raises much needed funds that go towards community groups, charities, all non-profits and residents of Warrington.

Warrington Community Lottery, is promoted by Warrington Voluntary Action, a Small Society Lottery licensed by Warrington Borough Council. Community Lotteries exist all over the country and the logistics and technicalities are delivered by a company called Gatherwell.

Are you looking for a way to raise some funds?

Register as a good cause and once accepted you will get a page on the Warrington Community Lottery site.

Your supporters (players) will then be able to choose you as their desired 'good cause' and proceeds from the tickets sold will go to you. The more you promote that you are a Good Cause (this can be through your own social media or within your services) and the more people that play, the more money you get.  Like the National Lottery, there is a prize pot to be won by a player and you get some much needed unrestricted funds.
