Can’t play The National Lottery? Come to us!
The National Lottery is undergoing a planned outage following the evening draws on Saturday August 2nd 2025 which is expected to last until Monday 4th August 2025, during which time nobody will be able to buy a ticket for any of their products either online or in-store, or claim any prizes. Don't take our word for it, it's all over the press and internet...
Don’t worry, you can always play with The Health Lottery instead!
The Big Win now features seven draws a week, QuickWin has a draw every three minutes, and you can always buy a ticket for All or Nothing with draws on Tuesdays and Fridays. Every one of these games cost just £1 to play!
The Big Win has a draw every day!
You can now play The Big Win every day of the week! It still costs just £1 to play - which is what it cost at launch in 2011.
There is a £25,000 jackpot every day of the week, with £100,000 free extra draws (Superdraws) every Wednesday and Friday.
We also have numerous additional second (and sometimes third) chance draws that change, so it’s always worth checking what bonus prizes can be won in any given draw, for no extra spend on your part as a player...
Playing The Big Win as a VIP
Although you can always play The Big Win when you want, especially online and on app, the smartest (and best value) way to play is as a VIP.
Your numbers will be played for you automatically, so no need to worry that you missed your numbers coming up and it lets you play on holiday too. Not everyone realises that it's not possible to play UK lotteries from outside Britain, so it's a great way to put your mind at rest as you relax by the pool or take to the slopes. You can check out the great VIP options available here. And there's even another blog about it...
QuickWin: the always-on lottery!
QuickWin offers a live online virtual lottery draw every three minutes with a £25,000 jackpot to be won in every single one of them. It boasts a very healthy 1 in 6 chance of winning any prize for your £1 stake too!
This means that there's an astonishing £12 million prize pool to be won every single day...
All or Nothing: two jackpots in every draw
All or Nothing is our bi-weekly lottery with draws every Tuesday and Friday is unique for paying out a £25,000 jackpot if you match all your numbers , with another jackpot if you match none of them!
But it also pays out for 10 out of 13 outcomes, with the result that the odds of winning something is a best-in-class 1:4.5! It has the best odds of any lottery game you can play in Britain, and that’s official!
Just £1 to play...
The eagle-eyed among you will already have spotted that all of The Health Lottery's draw games have one thing in common - they all cost just £1 to play.
It's ironic that when almost nothing in a pound shop is priced at £1 the beleaguered Poundland company itself sold for £1... But precious little else these days can be bought for a quid...
What are the odds?
At The Health Lottery, we don't just take pride at the low (and unraised) price of playing with us is, we're also proud about just how competitive the odds of our draws are. We've already mentioned that All or Nothing boasts the best odds of any British lottery game.
You can go into a deeper dive of how our games stack up against games like the National Lottery's Lotto or the Euromillions here.
And then there's Instant Win...
We have a wide range of instant win and online scratch games, some of which cost as little as 20p a go, all the way up to £5 premium cards. Then there are games like Bingo Lotto, Big Money Slingo and Elite of Evil where you can select your stake to your preferred level.
You can win up to £105,000 in our Instant Win games, but please always make sure you are doing so playing within your limits, and are having fun.
Doing good
Every major lottery and society raffle you can play in the UK gives a proportion of the ticket price or subscription fee to good causes, and it is good to keep in mind that even when a player doesn’t win, somebody benefits. The Health Lottery is no exception.
