Like all English churches the stopping of all in-person fund-raising last March has created many problems and has meant that we have had to look at different ways to help raise funds.Luckily for us Stroud District Council has recently set-up a community Lottery, the Lucky Severn Lottery, to help raise funds for good causes in the District area.As we have registered for a dedicated page, we receive 50p for every £1 ticket bought from our page, 10p goes in the general good causes fund, and 40p goes towards the prize money and administration. The top prize is £25,000! Since joining in March we have managed to sell enough tickets to raise £80 already. We hope to raise over £500 this year.It is all currently done by on-line purchasing so tickets can be purchased from anywhere in the country. <span style="font-size: 1rem;">The direct link to our dedicated page is </span>https://www.luckysevernlottery.co.uk/support/fretherne-st-marys-churchThank-you for helping us raise much needed funds.Good-luck!
