If a prize has not been claimed after 6 months, the unclaimed prize will be donated to Village Hall funds.
How do I buy tickets?
Complete an application form, which includes all relevant information, and return it to the promoters. An annual ticket will cost £30 (equivalent to £2.50 per month) and will be entered into the monthly draw. The fee for each number will be paid annually or half-yearly in advance and is not refundable. Each number is deemed to have been reserved for one year from the first draw it is entered in and they are not transferable. To receive an application form - please get in touch.
The member must have paid their fee for each monthly draw to be able to participate. Payment can be made in cash, by standing order or by cheque (made payable to Tysoe Village Hall). Individuals can join at any time during the year by paying the remaining annual fee. There is no limit to the number of tickets bought and the more numbers you have, the higher your chance of winning.
How much can I win?
There are three cash prizes every month. Each month, half of all money raised by the lottery becomes the prize money. This is apportioned as follows: 1st prize: 50%, 2nd prize: 30%, 3rd prize: 20%. For example, if 100 members each bought a single £2.50 entry, half of the £250 income would generate prizes of £62.50, £37.50 and £25.
How are the lottery subscriptions managed?
The bank account, to which all receipts are credited and from which all prizes are paid, is managed by the treasurer. As required by law, a full summary of all payments and receipts is submitted annually to Stratford-On-Avon District Council. Half of all entry money received is paid out as cash prizes. All profits are applied for the purposes of Shotteswell Village Hall.
How do I know who has won?
