What is Union Lotto?

The Union Lotto was created in 2021 on behalf of the Educational Trust of the General Federation of Trade Unions by Gatherwell Ltd and has been set up to support the Trust’s education work, delivering quality learning opportunities to union activists, the GFTU’s Affiliated Trade Unions and partner organisations.

We empower Unions and other Good Causes to raise money in a fun and effective way. Campaigning and community groups are also able to join the lottery as “Good Cause partners” as the Lottery is operated on the principle of raising money within the community for the community.

In a time of shrinking budgets and increased community need, UnionLotto.org enables people to support their Union and causes that they care most about, helping good causes to connect with their supporters.

A ticket for Union Lotto costs £1 a week and 60p will go to good causes!
