Harrow Wins has raised £70,000 for community groups and charities in Harrow.
The local lottery service provides funding to Harrow causes, helping to fill gaps where other funding might be lacking. Middlesex Association for the Blind, one of the beneficiaries, said the funds help “support people who have visual impairment, helping them to break their digital isolation and to join the online world.”
HOPE has also benefited, using funds to offer a range of parenting support programs aimed at building skills, addressing parenting challenges, and providing general support and advice.
Funds raised through Harrow Wins also go to organisations like Resourceful Women’s Network, which can now expand services such as free family law advice, affordable counselling, and free workshops for women in Harrow.
Players have the chance to win up to £25,000 while supporting local causes. Age UK Hillingdon, Harrow, and Brent, another recipient, uses these funds to help older residents by ensuring they are safe when returning home from the hospital.
