Players of The Health Lottery have raised an incredible £18million for charities across Great Britain which deal directly with mental health issues. That means more than a third of projects funded by People’s Health Trust through The Health Lottery go to projects which support mental health. It was initially established to break down the stigma often surrounding mental health and thoughts of suicide in a safe, accessible, non-clinical environment. We all know someone we have lost and out own company director and teacher Jamie had mental health challenges since the age of 11. The Health Lottery scheme manages multiple society lotteries that operate in rotation and each represents a different geographical region of Great Britain.
