I am currently on my schools fundrasing committe, we were thinking of setting up a 100 club to raise money for books for the school.
it has been my task to find out if this would affect my gambling, lottery regulations (yes i know i get all the good jobs) problem is that i dont have a clue where to starting looking.
Any help would be most appriciated, if the is in the wrong place then i do appologise.

I think I'd start with your local council: I am fairly sure that that's where you 'register' if you're running a big raffle, ie pre-selling tickets etc.
Hopefully the switchboard will know where to put you through to!Signature removed for peace of mind0 -
If you are only offering membership within the school, you don't have to register.£705,000 raised by client groups in the past 18 mths :beer:0

List of gambling regulations for east lothian council.
Prize Gaming is page 23. Email address is also on there and in myexperience I think it would be best to email them and ask all your questions.
