Three GET LUCKY LOCAL players each won £25 cash prizes in this week's big Richmond community lottery draw and twelve winners picked up three FREE tickets for next week's draw.

The cash winners are supporting Hampton & Richmond Borough Youth FC, The Landmark Arts Centre in Teddington and Teddington Hockey Club.

A total of forty-nine local community GOOD CAUSES are now signed up to the lottery including Park Lane Stables in Teddington which is threatened with closure and is running its own Save Our Stables campaign.

About 1000 tickets are being sold every week and £30.000 will be raised for community projects over the year.

A spokeperson for the not-for-profit lottery said: "There are hundreds of other good causes in the borough which could benefit from the lottery, especially at the this time when any kind of fundraising is very tough. We want to raise over £100.000 a year and make a significant difference to these groups."

The other free ticket winners had nominated the NPL Sports Club, The Orange Tree Theatre, Crossroads Care, Teddington Cricket Club, Hearts of Teddlothian FC, Hampton Hill Theatre and the 2nd Teddington Scout Group.
