UK – Lottoland launches scratchcard to support charities

Oonline lotto betting operator, Lottoland, has launched a scratchcard to support its aligned charities, Hospice UK, Blue Cross for Pets and the Prader-Willi Syndrome Association (PWSA) UK. The scratchcard has a top prize available of £50,000 and 20p of every £1 staked will go these good causes.

Hospice UK is the national charity for hospice and palliative care, working to ensure all adults and children living with a terminal or life shortening illness receive the care and support they need, when they need it.

Animal charity Blue Cross for Pets have been helping sick, injured and homeless pets since 1897. The money raised by Lottoland will help with caring for sick, injured and abandoned pets through free veterinary services, rehoming of dogs, cats, small pets and horses, and supporting those who have lost their beloved pets.

Finally, the Prader-Willi Syndrome Association UK, supports those affected by Prader-Willi syndrome, a genetic disorder that occurs in approximately one out of every 15,000 births, through every step of their lives.

Lottoland CEO Nigel Birrell said: “We are working with some truly fantastic charities this year and each of these causes is so vital for our communities – we’re delighted to be able to help them in any way we can.

“As a business, we are always looking for ways to offer our customers more choice through our games and lottos, and this scratchcard is another great example of offering something more than just prizes. We know that many of our customers want to give back and do something positive with their lotto play and so having the opportunity to support a great cause as well as be in with a chance to win money is a huge bonus.”
