The charity’s funds are raised through charity lotteries operated by the Postcode Lottery Ltd. The funds raised by each regional charity lottery are then distributed to local charities and good causes.

The Postcode Lottery concept fits with our objectives in bringing communities closer together. Individual postcode ticket holders will not only determine their own fortune, but also create opportunities to win for their neighbours and whole postcode district. This means that with each draw the odds of winning are very favourable – in the North East of England you have a 1 in 134 chance of winning. And our current top prize of £25,000 will make a difference to somebody’s life.
