Media centre

We support journalists with stories, data and case studies about the impact of National Lottery funding on communities across the UK.

Across the UK, millions of people are transforming their communities with projects to improve their local environment, tackle isolation, or help young people to thrive, and they're making it happen with funding and support from The National Lottery Community Fund.

Each year, more than 5 million people benefit from projects we fund - from small local initiatives to national partnerships. We fund a community project every 8 minutes in every local authority in the UK.

What we offer

We can provide:

  • interviews with spokespeople

  • case studies and real-life stories

  • insight and statistics about funded projects

  • comment on topics affecting communities
