I've had a look on Facebook to see what has been done before. I don't like the idea of me recording myself using my phone/computer to select a random number it scroll to direct the winner. What's to say I haven't done 30 takes to choose the winner. They also did £20 per place which I feel is too much.
I'd only consider it if there is a fair way to get the number generated. This leaves the first lottery ball which only gives 1-49 or something like a sporting event where a race is timed and using the split second of the finish time to get the number 00-59. These still leave the entry price at around £10 per chance.
Its looking like the headache of keeping it fair is going to make it a no go unless some bright person on here can think of a better option.
Oh well just a thought!
That way everyone has the same chance of winning.
That said I wouldn't want to administrate it! It sounds like a nightmare.
I'd just sell on eBay...

I'd be up for it by the way!

Private society lottery
Any group or society, except those set up for gambling, and where the proceeds of the lottery go to the purposes of the society. If you run or are a member of a private society, as long as that society has not been formed for gambling, you can run a lottery or raffle for the benefit of that society without an operating licence from the Gambling Commission. Tickets can only be sold to members of the private society or guests on the society's premises.
Hope all works out for you and your family.
Although I have seen these things pop up on other sites and the gambling license thing has been a show stopper but I can't 100% remember why I'm afraid!
