We are Allwyn UK, operator of The National Lottery since February 2024.

The Allwyn UK Communications team’s mission is two-fold, to promote and protect the reputation of Allwyn UK as the custodian of The National Lottery, and to create excitement and a positive landscape for The National Lottery to flourish. We champion, (through our people, purpose and products), The National Lottery’s impact on the UK more broadly and its ability to change lives every day.
