If you’ve ever wondered where the money raised from selling National Lottery tickets goes, then National Lottery Good Causes has the answer.

Since 1994, National Lottery players have raised a staggering £41 billion for Good Causes across the UK (that’s £30 million a week), and here on our YouTube page you can read about and see photos and videos of just some of the projects, groups and individuals who’ve benefited from National Lottery funding. 

With money being distributed to deserving causes across the arts, sport, heritage, charity/voluntary sector, health, education and the environment, there’s some really diverse stuff available to view here.
