Welcome to our Community Lottery Site! If you have been looking for a way to fund raise for your organisation then stop awhile and browse our Site. We are one of the leading suppliers of Lottery Software and Systems and currently help over 40 Charitable Organisations to generate millions of pounds each year by running their own Community Lotteries. If you do not run a Lottery then contact us to find out what is involved. If you run a Lottery with the help of a third party bureau and would like to run it on your own then please feel free to talk to us about the change over. The Community Lottery is a proven way to make a substantial financial contribution to your Organisation's funds each year. How does it Work ?You set up a Lottery Office with computer and office equipment. The staff comprises usually of a Lottery Manager and Administrators. The Lottery Manager organises all aspects of the running of a Local Lottery including Marketing, Money Collections, Office Administration, Legal Aspects and Gaming Returns. The most important aspect is finding your playing members and organising how you will collect money from them. Marketting your Lottery can be done in a variety of ways such as Leafleting, Mail Shots, Canvassing, Advertising etc. Each person who joins your Lottery is able to buy a weekly chance for £ 1.00 to win one of several money prizes. Each member is given a personnal six digit number which is used when your computer makes the draw each week. The golden rule is that every member who has paid for that week will go in the draw. You collect the money from your members by Cash (using a 1, 2 or 4 week cycle), Standing Order, Cheque or Credit Card etc. Automatic payment schemes like Standing Order and Direct Debits are the preferred route since they are usually the most efficient way to collect the money. Our Software manages all stages of the Lottery System including registration of new members, collections from existing members, carrying out the Draw, printing all reports, printing Winners cheques and keeping accounts.
