Overview

Gambling Connection: BOLTON HOSPICE LOTTERY LIMITED holds an active UKGC gambling licence as a society lottery operator, first licensed in May 2012. It's in our database because it's a regulated gambling entity operating under the Gambling Act 2005.

BOLTON HOSPICE LOTTERY LIMITED is a private limited company registered in Bolton, England, that operates a charitable lottery on behalf of Bolton Hospice. It's classified under SIC code 92000, covering gambling and betting activities, and it's been active for over 25 years since its incorporation in January 2001.

The company earns an A+ score of 97 out of 100, reflecting strong governance indicators across the board. It has a large, well-established board of UK-resident directors, recent confirmation filings, and a clear corporate ownership structure. There's no enforcement history on record.

As a society lottery operator, it sits in a distinct corner of the UK gambling market. It isn't a commercial casino or bookmaker. Its entire purpose is fundraising for end-of-life care, which shapes both its regulatory profile and the way it's governed.

Governance

BOLTON HOSPICE LOTTERY LIMITED has a large board of 11 current directors, all of whom are British nationals resident in the United Kingdom. The company is wholly owned by Bolton Hospice, a corporate PSC holding between 75% and 100% of shares, registered since April 2016. This structure is typical for a charitable society lottery, where the parent charity retains full control over the lottery subsidiary.
