As a long-time supporter of St Michael's Hospice I have played the Lottery for many years. The work they do at the Hospice and in people's homes is amazing and they are such an important part of our local community. I couldn't believe I had won, we are now packed and looking forward to our holiday. Nikki, a £2,000 top prize winner

Join our Lottery for the chance to win our £2,000 jackpot plus 57 other weekly cash prizes!

Our Lottery was set up in 1997 to provide additional financial support to help maintain the much needed services provided by the Hospice. All profits from the Lottery go to support St Michael's Hospice, and to date, the Lottery has contributed in excess of £9 million.

How does the Lottery work?

The cost is £1 per week, per entry. You can have as many entries per week as you like. When you start to play you will be given a unique five digit number for each of your entries. The numbers are chosen randomly by computer - no other player will have the same unique number as you. The weekly draw is made by computer every Friday, with 58 guaranteed winners every week. All the profits from the lottery go to St Michael’s Hospice.

Weekly prizes
1st prize: £2,000
2nd prize: £300
3rd prize: £150
plus 55 winners each receive £10

You can pay for your lottery subscription through a cash collector or by cheque or direct debit. Visit our online Weekly Lottery Entry Form to enter.
