New Mole Valley Community Lottery – Local Good Causes to Benefit

05 March 2021

This Summer, Mole Valley District Council is launching a new, weekly Community Lottery.  Lottery tickets will cost £1 and for every ticket bought, 50 pence will go to local good causes. The lottery prize jackpot is £25,000.

Income received through the lottery will be used by either MVDC or the local community to invest in climate change initiatives to help reduce carbon emissions in the district, for the benefit of residents, businesses, visitors to the area and the wider environment. Players would have the choice when purchasing a ticket to either support a specific good cause or an environmental initiative. Almost two thirds of the money raised from ticket sales would go towards social and environmental activities, with the remaining third split between sourcing prizes and administrative costs.

Councillor Claire Malcomson, Cabinet Member for Environment, said: “I am so proud to be launching our lottery this year.  We’ve all had it tough and to be able to announce such a fun and fantastic new project for 2021 gives me great pleasure. 10p of each ticket sold will go directly into a fund for our environmental projects and we are inviting local good causes, (they do not have to be charities), to sign up too so they can benefit as well.

“The Community Lottery is a great way for local groups and initiatives to raise money. If you are a local group based in Mole Valley that provides community activities or services that benefit local residents, then you are invited to join our online launch event on Tuesday 11 May 2021. During this session you will find out all about how the lottery works and the details around how your group could benefit. There are no set up costs or charges to register as a group for this initiative. Please register your interest in attending this session by emailing [email protected].”
