The 1857 Super Six Lottery

Try your luck every week with The 1857 Super Six Lottery.

It’s very simple:

  • Every week all you need to do is buy a ticket and select 6 numbers from the pool of numbers available. There are 24 numbers to choose from for the first draw (week 1) and the prize fund starts at £200.
  • One ticket is drawn each week and if your 6 numbers come up you win the prize fund.
  • If no one wins then for week 2 one number is removed (so 23 numbers available) and the prize fund is increased by £100 (to £300).
  • So long as there is/are no winner(s) then this process continues until week 13 when the prize money reaches £1,400 and there are only 12 numbers available to select.
  • The longer the lottery runs the greater chance you have of winning!

Tickets are only £1 and you can buy as many as you like.

There will be a ‘Lucky Dip’ option – your numbers will be chosen at random 1 day before each draw (ticket holders will be notified of their numbers by email) – all you have to do is tick the ‘Lucky Dip’ option on your ticket(s) and we will look after the rest.

Payments can be made weekly, monthly or even yearly - via cash or cheque (payable to ‘EASC’).
