How to play
- To enter you must be 16 or over.
- You can buy as many lines as you want, and play for as many weeks as you like.
- Every line you buy will be allocated a unique six digit lottery entry (like a lucky dip) which is yours to keep for as long as you play.
- Every Saturday six digits are selected at random. Prizes are issued when three, four, five or all six digits of the winning numbers are drawn in the correct place in the correct sequence.
- A match occurs if your digits are in the same place in the sequence as they are in the winning number.
- All winners are notified by post; cash prizes are posted by cheque and prize entries entered automatically into the next draw, so you can’t miss out!

About cancer
Cancer affects the lives of over 4,000 children and young people every year. Cancers in children and young people are quite uncommon compared to adult cancers. They also look different under the microscope, and respond differently to treatment.
