Lucky Lottery FAQs

The Lucky Lottery is the Guide Dogs weekly charity lottery. It’s a fantastic way to support the work of Guide Dogs, whilst being in with the chance to win weekly cash prizes. There are 210 guaranteed winners every week and it’s open to all residents of Great Britain aged 18 or over. Fancy your chances? Play now.

Each entry into the Lucky Lottery costs £1. You can play up to 15 entries per week.

No. If you’d prefer, you can sign up by calling us on 0800 688 8406 or by downloading a Lucky Lottery form.

Once we have processed your entry, we’ll send you your Lucky Lottery welcome letter, with all the information you need including the date from which your unique player number(s) will be entered. Please note this may take up to 14 days...and remember to keep this letter in a safe place!

Every Friday a random electronic number generator will select 210 player numbers to select the winners. The first number drawn will win £1,000, the second £200, the third £150, the fourth two prizes or £50, the fifth five prizes of £25, and then 200 runner-up prizes of £10 each.

In the final draw in March, June, September and December the first prize will increase to £10,000 for our Superdraw!

All winners will be notified by post and automatically sent their cheque. If your address changes, please notify our Guide Dogs Lucky Lottery Helpline on 0800 688 8406 so you don’t miss out! If you have won, we will send you an email and you may receive a call from us.

We also announce the prize winners on our Winners’ page every Friday afternoon. Have you been lucky?

Our Superdraw is held four times a year and the top prize of £1,000 is replaced by an incredible £10,000! All active players of the weekly Lucky Lottery will automatically be entered – so no need to do anything.
