Rugby Borough Council has partnered with lottery organisers Gatherwell to run the Rugby Lotto, offering local charities and community organisations the chance to raise vital funds.
With no set up costs and no admin fees, it's simple to sign up to the Rugby Lotto and launch your charity or organisation's dedicated page on the Lotto website.

Small society lotteries, promoted for the benefit of a non-commercial organisation such as a charity, must be registered with the council.
The Gambling Act 2005 defines a small society lottery as a lottery where proceeds do not exceed £20,000 for a single draw and aggregated proceeds do not exceed £250,000 in any one year.
Lotteries which exceed the definition of a small society lottery must be licensed by the Gambling Commission.
