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.

Taking part in a lottery is great fun, with the bonus that a portion of the money raised goes into a fund that’s reserved for improving the health of the nation. We’re focusing on channelling money into the areas that need it most.
Voluntary organisations can apply for money from The Health Lottery Foundation – here’s how
We welcome applications from voluntary organisations. Take a look at the areas we support.
Throughout the year we will distribute funds through open application rounds, closed application rounds and Community Choice nomination rounds. If you have any questions visit our FAQ page or get in touch.
