Submit a return
A return should be submitted within three months of the date of the draw (or the last draw), showing how much money was raised and the cost (if any) of the prize value. This needs to be done after each draw and you should submit a separate return for each raffle or lottery. The Council will remind you by email every three to six months to submit your returns forms. This requirement is necessary to ensure your licence remains valid.
You can submit a return to the Council using the online form below. In order to make the submission, you will need to be a formally appointed (appointed in writing) member of the Society. You will need to provide:
- your contact details
- the name of the society, its purpose and its registration number
- the name of the promoter
- the dates the tickets were on sale
- the date of the draw and the value of the prizes
- the total proceeds from the lottery
- a list of any deductions made from the prize fund
