Our partners at the Local Hospice Lottery have paused all face-to-face fundraising in response to new UK Government lockdown restrictions.

From Thursday 5th November to Wednesday 2nd December, Local Hospice Lottery fundraisers will be powering down their iPads and hanging up their jackets for at least 4 weeks.

But that doesn’t mean that you can’t keep supporting us through playing the lottery.


What is the Local Hospice Lottery?

The Local Hospice Lottery is a weekly lottery set up to provide financial support to adult and children’s hospices across the UK.

Playing the Local Hospice Lottery in support of Jessie May gives you the chance to win up to £2,000 every week – along with 152 other cash prizes – plus there’s a rollover that can reach as high as £25,000!

Players are also entered into two Super Draws every year (March and September) which have an additional guaranteed top prize of an incredible £10,000!
