Thank you to our OPAL Lottery supporters!

This week we hit our £5K fundraising target for our OPAL Lottery which we started at the end of 2021!

During this time, our lottery has raised lots of money which all goes to support older people in communities across rural West Cheshire.

Each week, one of our lucky supporters wins a cash prize too and since we’ve started, we’ve paid out over £2.4K in winnings! Well done to all our winners!
