Have your say on proposed changes to Council Tax Support |

Nottingham City Council is consulting on future options for its Council Tax Support scheme which helps households on low incomes with their Council Tax bill. 

Raffle

To sell printed raffle tickets before the prize draw, you must register as a 'small society lottery'. This type of lottery is designed to raise funds for non-commercial societies with charitable, sporting, cultural, or other non-commercial purposes, except for private gain.

  • Small Society Lotteries whose total value of ticket sales for a single draw is less than £20,000 and less than £250,000 per annum can register with the licensing authority in whose area the head office of the fundraising group is located.
  • Large lotteries Societies whose ticket sales for a single draw exceed £20,000, and £250,000 per annum must instead obtain a lottery operators licence from the Gambling Commission.

For further information on small society lotteries, please visit the Gambling Commissions Advice Page.
