| Under the Act certain details are required to be
printed on the tickets. Registration
If tickets are to be sold to the general public the raffle must be registered
with the licensing department of your local authority. This sometimes comes
within the Environmental Department.
The raffle must be established for one or more of the
following purposes:
- Charitable purposes.
- Participation in, or support of athletic sports,
games or cultural activities.
- Purposes not mentioned in (a) or (b) but which are
not for private gain or for a commercial undertaking.
We do not need documented proof
of registration, the information that it has been affected will suffice. The
registration number and authority will be printed on the ticket. If registration
is not obtained the ticket must state MEMBERS ONLY, or words to that affect.
Promoter
All raffle tickets must bear the promoters name. In case of clubs and other
organisations this can be limited to read 'Promoter: The Committee'
Ticket Price
Each ticket or book of tickets must bear its purchase price. In the case of a
book price 'Deals' are not allowed (i.e. 20p per ticket 90p per book of
5).
