As reported by the Lancashire Evening Telegraph: “Ribble Valley MP Nigel
Evans hopes a private lottery will ensure worthy causes like the Bowland
Mountain Rescue Team do not lose out on cash grants. “Following the launch
of the new lottery, which Mr Evans says will be a wake-up call to the
Government, he also called for changes to the rules of the National Lottery,
giving more power to the punters to decide where their money should go.”
