Though the national Lottery is incredibly popular in the UK, many people don't realise that it consists of four lotteries, each with its own size of prize money. The smallest and "easiest" jackpot prize is by playing the Thunderball. As far as the odds go, the Thunderball has the lowest. In order, next comes Set for Life, then Euromillions and finally, the Lotta, with odds of getting the main prize standing at a phenomenal 45,057,474 to 1! With odds like those, winning will be hard work!

Having a national lottery that provides so much cash for "good causes" is a massive boost for those that need the extra money to continue or strike new ground. In the UK, many sports and cultural institutions have managed to benefit from the largesse of the UK Nation lottery. The Uk's Olympic hopes would have died in a dark corner years ago if it hadn't been for grants provided by the lottery.
