Edition: Summer 2022
Our Horsham District Community Lottery was delighted to announce its first £25k winner recently.


Nursing wildlife back to health
The lottery funds we receive go straight into our charity bank account and pay for everyday medicines, food and equipment for our sick animals. They are also put towards the day to day running costs of the hospital. We are so thankful for the lottery funds which make a huge difference to us as we rely completely on donations and the work of volunteers. Jane Burrows, Rangers Lodge Wildlife Hospital founder


Keeping Horsham Park beautiful
Lottery funds have been used to buy pollinator-friendly seeds and plants for our Wednesday morning volunteer gardening sessions. Our volunteers have donated over 1,000 hours in the last year to enhancing the park – planting, weeding, pruning and clearing paths.
We have also used funds to create materials for free children’s nature activities and to produce educational posters in the park about the six target species we support: bumble bees, hedgehogs, butterflies, stag beetles, redwings and fieldfares.
A highlight for our lottery spending last year was the contribution of £200 towards the making of a ‘Virtual Day Trip to Horsham Park’ which combines short film clips of the park with activities and discussion for those unable to visit the park in person.
Without the lottery funds we would have to spend more time fund-raising to cover our running costs and charge for activities that are currently free. The funds help us to be inclusive in what we do and that’s important – we believe everyone should be able to enjoy what our wonderful park has to offer. Sally Sanderson, Chairman of Friends of Horsham Park
