The campaign, which is being delivered in partnership with the FA, Scottish FA, Football Association of Wales and Northern Ireland Football Association, aims to thank National Lottery players for the £12.5million of funding which helped community clubs like ours operate, and in some cases survive, throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.

More on the campaign
The money for this campaign, as well as the initiatives with the various FAs and leagues across the UK during Covid, came from a National Lottery promotional fund. It was not funded by money allocated for National Lottery Good Causes or by Camelot.
The National Lottery is also working alongside Non-League Day, a campaign set up in 2010 to encourage supporters of clubs playing at the highest levels of the game to support their smaller local or non-league club and sample the unique matchday experience of football at local level.
The National Lottery has always played a vital role in supporting elite, community and grassroot sport in the UK. Including football, the National Lottery has invested more than £5.7billion into grassroots sport since it was established in 1994. In the last year nearly £395million was given to grassroots and elite sport good causes, funding everything from facilities to playing fields and creating opportunities for everyone to get active and improve their lives through sport.
There are other opportunities for National Lottery players in March. The National Lottery Open Week takes place between 19-27 March to say thank you for the more than £30million raised every week by National Lottery players. Open Week unlocks free entry and exclusive discounts for National Lottery players at a range of participating venues including galleries, museums, gardens, historic castles and sports stadiums.
