We are proud of our humble beginnings. In 1982, Eddie Dixon wanted to help his local hospice with their door to door collections. From his living room, he thought there must be a better way to collect lottery payments using a database. He invested in a computer - the first on the street - and started building. His ambition was simple; to utilise new technologies to enable an efficient fundraising lottery.

40 years on, with son Richard at the helm, our 50+ team have supported charitable organisations of all sizes to raise more than £600 million.
