The National Lottery’s 30th Birthday, it's a Game Changer - National Lottery Good Causes (original) (raw)

Join us in celebrating the impact of National Lottery funding over the last 30 years.

The National Lottery, it's a Game Changer

For the past 30 years The National Lottery has supported Good Causes as a way to bring positive change to communities right across the United Kingdom and the Isle of Man.

Since the first draw was held in 1994, we've raised over £49 billion for good causes and awarded over 690,000 individual grants to projects and organisations, making a real difference to local communities.

Thanks to our players, we are able to strengthen local communities, power sports teams, support environmental projects, unleash creative talent, empower the elderly and unlock young people's potential.

To mark The National Lottery’s 30th Birthday, we’re creating a campaign that celebrates the incredible changes we’ve collectively delivered and seeks to inspire the next generation of good causes and players.

Our beneficiaries are integral to the Game Changing impact that National Lottery funding has across the UK. Thanks to your efforts, the £30m we contribute to good causes every week, changes lives every day. In short...

The National Lottery, it's a Game Changer

To mark this amazing milestone, we’re launching a show-stopping campaign in September, to make the undeniable impact of three decades of Lottery funding impossible to ignore.
