How it works

For every £1 you play each week, you’ll receive a unique 6-digit lottery number. Every Friday, a winning number is drawn at random. Match 3 digits to win 5 entries into the next draw, 4 digits to win £25, 5 digits to win £1,000 or 6 digits to win £25,000!

Your digits match if they are in the same place as they are in the winning number.

How you’ll be supporting us

When you play the QEF Weekly Lottery a minimum of 50p of every £1 from your entries goes to us every time you play. The money goes directly towards helping QEF provide support to disabled children and adults to achieve their goals.

How is the QEF lottery managed?

The QEF lottery is managed through a company called Unity, who run a lottery for charities to join and promote to raise money for their own good causes. This allows charities that cannot afford to set up their own lottery programme to offer a lottery to their supporters. This is an incredibly affordable way for us to keep our costs very low but offer lottery as a way for our supporters to play and support us at the same time.

Unity is a common brand lottery jointly promoted by Sterling Management Centre Limited and individual society lotteries. Each Lottery operated under Unity is a separate licensed lottery, operated by and supporting that particular good cause. Unity is administered by Sterling Management Centre Limited, licensed and regulated in Great Britain by The Gambling Commission under account number 3137.
