SeaMoor Lotto’s very first community lottery draw is about to take place, but you still have time to buy your ticket to support local good causes.

The new local authority-led initiative, SeaMoor Lotto, has a host of local good causes signed up in time for the first online draw to be held on 4 August. You can buy your ticket by going to the SeaMoor Lotto website and get involved while supporting your local charities and good causes.

With over 60 good causes live on the lottery website, there’s a whole host of great charities and community groups to choose from. In addition to supporting local good causes, ticket holders stand the chance of winning £25,000 and a range of prizes including: £200 worth of Devon-made dog food from Forthglade; afternoon tea for two at The Bedford Hotel in Tavistock; one of six family swim passes from Fusion Lifestyle or an iPad.

Cllr Neil Jory, West Devon Borough Council’s Hub Lead Member for the Lottery, says: “It’s the countdown to the first SeaMoor Lotto draw and those who decide to purchase a £1 lottery ticket will be directly supporting their chosen good cause.

“We would love to see as many people as possible supporting the local community, so get behind the Lotto and be in with a chance to win some great prizes.”

For every £1 ticket purchased, 50p goes directly to a local good cause of the ticket holder’s choice and a further 10p from every ticket purchase goes directly to the wider SeaMoor Lotto community fund.

Local causes, signed up to the Lotto, each have their own fundraising page online detailing their good cause, the target they are trying to reach, and what they are fundraising for.

Samantha Clark, Chairman of voluntary group K9 Search Dogs, says: “K9 Search Dogs provide a vital service for both local and visiting dog owners who find themselves in the frightening position of losing their beloved pet. We plan to use the lottery money to purchase wet weather and safety gear to help keep our hounds and handlers safe on searches in the darker winter days.”
