Unity is a lottery with a difference. We receive profits directly from the number of lottery players we recruit, so we need your support.

For every £1 entry – 50p goes directly to the charity supporting our cats and dogs and helping them find their loving new owners and their ‘forever’ homes.

How it works:

For just £1 per week, you will be allocated a six-digit Unity lottery number.

Every Friday a random winning number is drawn, and the lucky winners get prize cheques posted directly to them, so there’s no need to check your numbers!

Winners must match 3, 4, 5 or all 6 digits of the winning number in the correct place in the sequence.

If you match….

6 digits you’ll win £25,000, 5 digits you’ll win £1,000, 4 digits you’ll win £25, 3 digits you’ll win 5 Entries into the Next Draw.

FAQs

How do I start and stop my entry?

 You can stop your entry at any time, simply visit https://help.givecircle.com and select stop your entry. If you need help, then email help@givecircle.com and our lottery provider will guide you through the process. 

 How can you afford to give away cash prizes? 

 Prizes are paid by our lottery provider, so there is no risk of our being out of pocket! 

 How much of the weekly subscription does the Charity receive? 

 Animal Rescue Cumbria received over 50% of the weekly fee you pay.  The money that doesn’t come to the charity is used to cover the costs of running the lotteries. These costs include the prize money, transaction fees, taxes, licensing fees and other administrative costs. 

 Why do I receive communications from GiveCircle 

 We trust GiveCircle to operate our lottery for us, so some lottery correspondence will come from GiveCircle. GiveCircle has recently changed its name from Donr, so you may also see Donr mentioned. 

 Partnering with GiveCircle helps us to raise the funds we need to do our work. They take care of all of the admin, so that we can focus on helping animals in need.
