Lotteries Council logo

The Lotteries Council is a key part of the lives of organisations or individual with a genuine and legitimate interest in society lotteries who believe that it's in all their interests to present a strong and unified voice for lottery fundraising.

Members are drawn from charities, societies, lottery professionals and suppliers to the industry, including donorflex.

The Council was formed more than 30 years ago by volunteers with a passion for lottery fundraising.

Today, it continues to operate almost entirely on voluntary contributions from individuals working in the industry.

There to serve others

The ethos of service to others remains a key component in the way the organisation works. The activities of members include:

  • Draws
  • Raffles
  • Sweepstakes
  • Scratch cards
  • Door-to-door collections
  • Internet

Over the years, the council has proved to be a highly effective forum for technical knowledge, legal guidance and practical advice for all its members, which today numbers 170.
