  5. The subscription to the Lottery for one number shall be £60 per year, payable in advance, or £5 per month payable by monthly standing order. This will give members one number which will be placed in 12 draws (i.e. cost is £5.00 per month). This number shall remain the member’s provided their subscription is up to date.
