One top prize of £500
Two prizes of £50
Five prizes of £10
From time to time the Society may choose to operate a Superdraw with an additional prize. This prize will be determined before a seasonal Superdraw is promoted. This will ensure that the prize for that particular draw is clear to players before they enter it. The superdraw prize will be promoted on the http://dbhc.org.uk/lottery website.

An entry to the seasonal superdraw will be given to existing direct debit ticket holders at no additional cost if they have credit in their account to play in that week’s normal Lottery.

Entrants are required to provide to the Society their name, date of birth, address and email address. To enter the Lottery you must be aged 18 (eighteen) or over. Any entrant found to be under 18 years of age at the time of entry automatically forfeits the right to any Prize and will have their stake refunded. Checks will be carried out to verify the age of participants. This may include references to credit agencies.
The eligibility of any entrant is at the sole discretion of the Society, which reserves the right to disqualify or decline to accept the entry of any entrant if it has reasonable grounds to believe the entrant has breached any of these Rules or otherwise acted fraudulently. Ineligible entrants will not be entitled to receive a Prize, and any Prize awarded to an ineligible entrant may be revoked (if not received) or must be returned (if already received).
Lottery Draw
The Draw process is based upon the results of the first six digits of a number drawn by a random number generator which is drawn every Saturday. The results are published on the website (https://dbhc.org.uk/weeklyprizedraw/) and are available at 17.45 GMT. The Winning Number for each weekly draw shall be the first six-digit number generated as follows:
- The Winning Number shall be the first six digits (in the same order) of the random number generator draw which takes place every Saturday.
In order to comply with the 2005 Gambling Act only those Chances for which payment has been received are eligible for entry into the Draw.
In the event that the random number generator draw does not occur or is declared void on a single occasion then the Winning Number shall be determined in the same way but from an alternative method. Details of such an occurrence will be published on the Lottery website.
In the event that the Draw process below ceases to occur or is subject to fundamental change which prevents a Winning Number being selected then The Fundraising Foundry Limited reserves the right to select an alternative Draw process. Such an alternative Draw process would be selected on the basis that the basic principles of the Draw as described would continue and the basic principles of how winners would be selected would continue as described. Such changes will be published on the Lottery website.
The approximate winning probabilities are summarised below. The draw ensures guaranteed winners every week so the odds of winning are 1/number of entries. As at 2024-05-31 the odds of winning a prize are 1 in 15,335. The approximate probabilities will change each week depending upon the number of tickets that are entered into the draw.
