Play our lottery

Want to be in with a chance of winning £25,000 whilst simultaneously supporting Carr Gomm? Then look no further. 

For just £1 a week you can be entered into the Carr Gomm lottery, with the chance of winning £25,000 every Friday*. Every entry into our lottery supports people across Scotland who are experiencing the crushing reality of loneliness and isolation.

How do I play? 

Simply sign up to our lottery online or download and return the postal form. 

Every entry to the lottery costs just £1, and for every £1 you play, you'll be given a unique 6-digit lottery number: so the more entries you have, the greater your chances of winning. 

Unity, the award-winning charity lottery partners, administer the weekly lottery on our behalf. They guarantee that at least 50% of each of your £1 entries comes directly to us; and every penny we receive goes directly towards funding our community projects and activities. 

What could I win?

Every Friday a random winning number is drawn, and there are a range of possible prizes:

  • 3 digits in the correct place wins five prize entries into the next draw
  • 4 digits in the correct place wins £25
  • 5 digits in the correct place wins £1,000
  • 6 digits in the correct place wins £25,000

Who else can get involved? 

Our lottery is open to anyone and everyone; you don't have to work for Carr Gomm to play. This means you can help us raise even more money to stomp out loneliness across Scotland by encouraging family, friends, colleagues and neighbours to play too. 

To put it into context, if 5 of your contacts signed up, we could buy much needed seeds for our Community Growing projects. Or if 10 of your contacts signed up, we could buy wood for our Mens' Shed. Every pound adds up to make a significant difference to the lives of people in local communities. 

Please remember...

Since this is a lottery, you must be over 16 years old to enter, and you must be resident in Great Britain.**

Thanks for playing...and don't forget to check the results!

You can call the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 802 0133 between the hours of 8am until midnight 7 days a week, or check out the Be Gamble Aware website. 

**The weekly draw will be moving from Saturdays to Fridays as of 2nd August

**Due to licencing laws, our lottery is not available to people living in Northern Ireland.
