A new online lottery is to be launched in the Autumn to benefit UK charities.
Run
by InterLotto, the organisation that established PlusLotto in aid of the International
Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, the lottery will be played
in pubs and other retail outlets.

Lord Mancroft, UK Chairman of InterLotto said: “we want to put the fun back into
lottery and are developing new game concepts, which are easy to play and ensure 
good chances to win regularly. These will be live, quick and interesting and could
well overtake Sky football as the main drawcard to the local!”
