The guaranteed first prize in this year's Channel Islands Christmas Lottery has risen to £675,000.
As in previous years the guaranteed first prize will continue to rise as additional ticket sales
volumes rise across the Channel Islands. Instant cash prizes from £2-5,000 are also
incorporated into the draw and can be redeemed by islanders who reveal a Santa Claus in the
scratch area.
Malcolm Woodhams from the Association of Guernsey Charities said, 'It's great to see that
the guaranteed first prize has increased again to £675,000 as we reach ever closer to the
million pound mark. Many worthy charities apply to us each year for support; some of these
charities can be small and so may find it difficult to gain the exposure that larger charities
benefit from. We aim to help as many Guernsey charities as we possibly can with the proceeds
from this draw, so buying Channel Island Christmas Lottery Tickets in Guernsey is one way of
supporting good causes and being in with a chance to win one of the big prizes as well".
We know that each year many businesses and groups like to organise syndicates as we enter
the festive period and approach the draw date. Each block of 50 tickets has a guaranteed win
of at least £22, and they can be purchased by contacting Sport & Recreation Services on
709714.
