| **RADMIN:** Under the Gambling Act 2005 it is legal to hold a raffle in the UK if the prize is under £20K. This raffle also qualifies as an incidental non-commercial lottery (with no license needed) so long as all tickets are sold at the event, and the organisers don't spend more than £100 of the raffle income on expenses. In our case the raffle takings were £32 (32 tickets sold at £1 each, all during RADMIN). | **RADMIN:** Under the Gambling Act 2005 it is legal to hold a raffle in the UK if the prize is under £20K.
