About us: The National Lottery Promotions Unit (NLPU) was set up in 2002 to communicate with consumers from a pan-National Lottery perspective so that National Lottery players know how their good cause money is being spent. Each week £36million is raised by National Lottery players which goes towards good causes. We seek to increase public knowledge of the variety and extent of National Lottery funding to good causes and to encourage National Lottery players to make the link between their spend on lottery products and the impact on communities all across the UK.

The NLPU works across all 12 of the National Lottery funding distributors to tell good cause stories across the sport, art (and ‘the arts’), film, community and charity, and heritage sectors.

A key component of the NLPU’s digital strategy for the next three years is for our content to reach as wide an audience as possible while attracting significant engagement from viewers.
