Dear Supporter
Thank you for enquiring about Octopus Lottery the new UNISON Welfare Monthly prize draw.
UNISON Welfare is a registered charity that provides a unique confidential service just for UNISON members and their families (including retired members). Every year we help thousands of members with grants, wellbeing breaks, free debt advice and a wide range of support services.
To be able to provide this support we rely on UNISON members and branches to help us with fundraising and the Octopus Lottery Monthly prize draw is one of the ways we can do this. 50% of the money raised from ticket sales is paid out as prizes and 40% goes to help support the work of the charity. Administration costs are kept very low at just 10%
You can buy up to a maximum of 10 numbers at £1 each which will be automatically entered into each months prize draw. So unlike some prize draws you do not need to remember to enter each month.
The first prize draw will take place on 6th March 2009 so no money will be taken on your direct debit until 2nd March 2009.
If you would like to sign up to play Octopus Lottery please complete the application form and direct debit form and send it to: Freepost RSAE-BEHJ-XTXB, Octopus Lottery, Kings Court, London Road, Stevenage, SG1 2TP.
Thank you for your support.
Julie Grant
Head of UNISON Welfare
