Since launching, over £7,000 has been won, 3,774 extra tickets have been given away as prizes and over £40,000 has been raised for the Mole Valley community. March 4, saw our first ever £2000 winner in the Mole Valley Community Lottery.
Janet Galpin was delighted to receive her prize and is very happy to see the benefits going to her chosen charity – Dyscover, a specialist charity based in Leatherhead, who provide long-term support and opportunity for people with aphasia, a communication disability often caused by a stroke, brain injury or a rare form of dementia.
Janet said: “I never win anything, so this was a real surprise! Dyscover is an amazing, professional, and helpful charity, who have done so much to support my husband. I’m planning to donate some of my winnings to them. The Mole Valley Community Lottery is a great way to support a local charity. Setting up the direct debit to play was really easy to do – you don’t have to worry about it, as the money just comes out each week, but there is the option to pay for tickets by debit card, so you can play when you like”
Tickets are just £1 in the weekly draw, and you can choose from one of 57 causes to support.
At least 60p from each ticket sold goes to supporting the Mole Valley community, play today at molevalleylottery.co.uk.
