Payments and winning
The easiest way to pay and play the Big Win Weekly Lottery is by setting up an ongoing Direct Debit through our online signup page. We also accept cheque payments if someone is unable to set up a Direct Debit.
The cost of each entry is £1. This equates to a monthly Direct Debit of £4.34 each month.
You can choose the date of your Direct Debit payment when you sign up, from one of the options provided.
It usually takes around 7-10 working days to get set up. Once set up you will be entered into the next possible draw, which take place every Friday.
Winners will receive their prizes by cheque through the post. These prizes will be automatically posted, so there is nothing for you to do but sit back and watch the post. We will also notify winners via phone or letter.
There are 224 weekly winners for the Big Win Weekly Lottery. With the prizes split in the following amounts: 1x £1,000, 1x £100, 2x £50, 5x £20, 25 x £10 and 190 x £5.

How are funds used?
All proceeds raised from the Big Win Weekly Lottery and Super Draw go towards Alzheimer’s Society work supporting people affected by dementia, paying prize winners and investing to grow our lottery programme. You can find more information on what vital work you’re helping to fund on our website.
The money spent on Prizes for our Weekly Lottery, Super Draw and Free Prize Draws are taken from their own proceeds. Prizes account for roughly 9% of the total income raised by these activities. Sometimes, material prizes might be kindly donated by Corporate Partners of Alzheimer’s Society, which of course are of no cost to us. In this case, no Prize fund will be deducted from the proceeds.
We occasionally send small free gifts or additional chances to win prizes to some of our supporters as a thank you for their continued support and generous donations. Whilst these only ever cost us a few pence to produce, we do always spend our money wisely to ensure we can increase our work providing valuable support for people living with dementia and their families, as well as campaigning for change and researching for a cure. We do see a good return on investment for the free gifts or free prize incentives that we send out – often increasing our income and increasing the response from our supporters by up to 10%.
