Play Responsibly
The Friends of Plane Saver Lottery is designed to be an enjoyable and low-cost way for members to take part in monthly prize draws while supporting community initiatives. We are committed to promoting responsible play and protecting the well-being of our members.

Our Commitment to Responsible Play
-
The lottery is open only to members aged 18 or over.
-
Participation is entirely optional and should remain enjoyable.
-
Tickets cost £1 each, and members can purchase up to 10 tickets per month (maximum £10), helping to manage spending.
-
Ticket subscriptions continue automatically until a member chooses to amend or cancel them.
-
We encourage all members to play within their means and never spend more than they can afford.

Recognising the Signs of Problem Gambling
Even though FOPS is a community lottery with small stakes, gambling-related harm can affect people in different ways. Watch out for:
-
Spending more than you intended
-
Feeling pressure to continue playing
-
Chasing losses
-
Lottery participation affecting your finances, well-being, or relationships
If you recognise any of these signs, please seek support.
