British Model Flying Association set to receive funding from new lottery game.
BingoLotto is a new lottery and TV game which will be hitting the airwaves on February 29th 2008 and will be donating at least 20% from the sale of each £2 Lottery Gamecard to good causes in the UK.
The British Model Flying Association is one of the selected beneficiaries chosen to receive funds through the Central Council for Physical Recreation to help us support and develop model flying at ‘grass roots’ level.
The game will have a primetime Friday night slot on Virgin1 (channel 153 on Sky, channel 122 on Virgin and channel 20 on Freeview) and Challenge (Sky channel 124 and channel 152 on Virgin) from 7 to 8pm and will provide interactive challenges for players as well as the chance to win a variety of prizes.
The game will be hosted by comedian Joe Pasquale, actress/singer Suzanne Shaw and a character called Mr Bing. The Swedish version of BingoLotto has given around £100 million to good causes each year in its native country.
Prizes are said to be ‘life enhancing’ with a weekly jackpot of £100,000 and a range of other prizes on offer including cars, holidays and electronic goods.
Gamecards will be available at over 10,000 retail outlets in the UK displaying the BingoLotto sign. Players must be over the age of 16.
