Weather Lottery
By supporting our Weather lottery scheme you will help us to provide support. 35% of the funding goes directly to the Age Concern Liverpool, 45% goes to the provision of prizes and the insurance premium, which covers the £200 and £10,000, wins. The Great Weather Lottery supplies all the forms and does all the administration of the lottery apart from finding participants; this is totally cost and risk free to the Age Concern Liverpool.
How Does It Work?
The great thing about The Great Weather Lottery it is you don't share a jackpot. If you Match 6 numbers you get £10,000, if anyone else has the same numbers as you they also get £10,000. This is possible because we've joined with other Charities, Sporting Clubs, Schools, and Societies, with all the prize money held in trust. The prizes are guaranteed by Lloyds of London.
A simple form allows you to choose 6 numbers between 0-9 for a line. Each line costs £1 a week; you can have up to 3 lines a week. Each line is entered into a daily draw Monday to Friday, therefore you get five chances a week for your £1
The winning numbers are obtained by taking the last digit of the temperature in Fahrenheit, in six world cities, Corfu, Istanbul, Tenerife, Innsbruck, Edinburgh and Stockholm as reported each day Monday to Friday in The Daily Telegraph. (That's why its called "The Great Weather Lottery")
Match 3 numbers and win £2

The six world destinations are constant and do not change. Your 1st number is always matched against Corfu; your second number is always matched against Istanbul etc.
