Playing the Wigan & Leigh Hospice Lottery for as little as £1 per week is a great way of helping people with progressive, incurable illnesses in your community. Many people look at their subscription as a way of making a regular donation - with the added bonus that you might win one of 30 guaranteed weekly prizes.

 

*Please note that any payments made after 20th March 2024 will be at our new price of £2 per lottery line, per week.*

Our lottery costs £1 per week or double your chances with two numbers.

You'll be given a unique number which is yours to keep, and every Friday 30 winning numbers will be drawn electronically.

If your number is drawn you could win up to £1,000.

There's no need to claim or check the results as we'll send you a cheque in the post. However, the winning numbers will be published weekly on our website. 

There are 30 prizes to be won every week, with a guaranteed top weekly prize of £1,000!

Plus additional prizes of £250, £100, £75 and £25, as well as five prizes of £25 and 20 prizes of £10.
