How is the National Lottery impacting community projects?
The National Lottery has a long history of supporting community and heritage projects.

Lucy Jenkins, Co-CEO at Ushaw, stated, “These grants from The National Lottery Heritage Fund and Historic England are a powerful vote of confidence in Ushaw’s journey to date and in our ambitions for the future.”
Furthermore, the National Lottery has been instrumental in supporting the grassroots music scene since 2021. The upcoming Everywhere At Once festival, scheduled for June 26-28, 2026, will feature participation from more than 500 grassroots music venues. Mark Davyd, CEO of Music Venue Trust, emphasized the importance of this support, saying, “Thanks to the support from The National Lottery, Everywhere At Once can pair visibility with meaningful, practical support, putting real investment directly into venues while amplifying their collective voice.”
Alastair Ruxton, Chief Impact Officer at Allwyn, highlighted the broader impact of National Lottery funding, stating, “National Lottery funding is the cornerstone of the arts across the country and, because of our players, projects and venues – both large and small – can continue to play a role in each and every community.”
As the EuroMillions draw approaches, the excitement builds not only for potential winners but also for the ongoing support the National Lottery provides to various community initiatives. The intertwining of lottery winnings and community funding continues to shape the cultural landscape in the UK.
