The Health Lottery Foundation
distributes players’ money
to good causes
We make sure that the money raised by The Health Lottery flows back into local communities and makes a difference where it’s most needed. We fund projects that unite people to improve health, wellbeing and happiness.

We welcome applications from voluntary organisations. Take a look at the areas we support.
