1. All applications to enter the St Columba’s Hospice Care Weekly Prize Draw must be from people 18 years and over.
  2. The Promoter (St Columba’s Hospice Care, Edinburgh) will conduct the Weekly Prize Draw every Friday. The draw will be made utilising a random number generator that has been tested and approved by an independent, Gambling Commission approved, third-party test house.
  3. The winning numbers will be published in the Hospice, the lottery website and will be available via the St Columba’s Hospice Care Weekly Prize Draw Office Helpline from the following working day. Please telephone (0131) 552-4417 (Monday-Friday 9.00 a.m. – 5.00 p.m.).
  4. The cost of each entry is £1. Players may purchase more than one entry and payment must be made in advance by one of the methods permitted. Players’ lottery entry money (which has the same definition as ‘customer funds’ as defined in clause 4 of the Gambling Commission’s Licencing Conditions and Codes of Practice) will be held in a separate bank account so that, in the unlikely event of the insolvency of St Columba’s Hospice Care, such funds will be protected.
  5. All proceeds from the Weekly Prize Draw go to St Columba’s Hospice Care, Edinburgh (Registered Office: 15 Boswall Road, Edinburgh EH5 3RW. Registered in Scotland No. 48700. Charity No. SC003634).

There are no alternatives to any prize and no interest is payable. Prizes will be sent by cheque within 14 days. Entrants will be notified as to any change in the prize structure. Prize cheques are valid for 6 months from the date of issue. Unclaimed prize cheques after this period will be treated as a donation to hospice general funds.
