Welcome to the Brain Research UK Weekly Lottery. By joining our lottery, you have a chance to win up to £25,000 every week!
We have teamed up with the Unity Lottery to offer you the chance to win up to £25,000 every week. For as little as £1 a week, taking part is a fantastic way to win a great prize whilst supporting vital work in funding essential research, to help all those with a neurological condition live better, longer.
How and what do you win?
Brain Research UK’s weekly lottery is managed by Unity Lottery (Sterling Management Centre Ltd), a UK company with more than 20 years’ experience of running lotteries for charities.
You can play for as little as £1 per week. For every £1 you play each week you will receive a unique 6-digit lottery number, which will remain yours for as long as you keep playing. You can purchase more than one lottery number if you wish.
Every Friday, Unity generate a random 6-digit winning number sequence(all numbers are between 0 and 9). If your digits are in the same positions as the digits in the winning number sequence, you win a prize!
For example, if the winning number sequence was 6 7 4 3 0 7 and your lottery number is
7 2 4 3 1 7, you will have matched 3 digits in the sequence because three are positioned in the same place.
What are my chances?
Unity offers the best odds of any platform of its kind. Because it is a number match game the odds are fixed. Every £1 entry has a 1 in 63 chance of winning one of the prizes.

How your support helps
Your support helps to ensure that we can continue to fund essential research to better understand, diagnose and develop new treatments to improve the lives of those affected by a neurological condition. We are currently focusing our funding on three priority areas: acquired brain and spinal cord injury, neuro-oncology (brain tumours) and headaches and facial pain. These areas we have identified as having large unmet patient need and a lack of current research investment. Find out more about our research funding
