The 200 Club

The Pump House Project runs a 200 Club lottery, where you as a friend of TPHP can purchase a monthly share at £5 each, and each calendar month, during our Coffee Morning, 40% is returned in the form of cash prizes:

  • 1st prize is £240
  • 2nd prize is £100
  • 3rd prize is £60

A 200 Club lottery, is a lawful and fun way of raising money for small not-for-profit clubs that exist to promote 'good causes'.

How it works: You decide if you would like to purchase one or any number of shares, each share will cost £5. This you will pay by monthly standing order. For every share you purchase, TPHP will allocate you a share number, and on the first Wednesday every month, all the share numbers will be included in a draw, made by a computerised Random Number Generator.

The share number allocated to you will remain 'your' number for as long as you participate, which we hope will be many years. Anybody aged 16 and over can play, and prizes can be 'gifted' should you wish your winnings to be paid to your Grandchildren, Parents, etc. Winners will be advised by email, and a cheque will be made out immediately.

Rules apply and will be included in our newsletters, also on our Web and Facebook pages, they will also be on display within The Pump House Project building.

Note: The prize values will depend on the number of shares sold, we have calculated that within a short period of time 200 shares will have been sold. If initially we have not reached that figure the cash prizes will be less, and if or when we have sold more than 200, the prizes will be more.

For more information, please speak to our Project Co-ordinator or any of our trustees, or if you prefer you may contact the 200 Club administrator at: editor@thepumphouseproiect.co.uk

Your support is greatly appreciated.  Good luck!
