Overview

Operator Type: Society lottery operator raising funds for a registered charity

RNIB Direct Services Lottery Limited runs a society lottery on behalf of the Royal National Institute of Blind People, one of the UK's most prominent sight loss charities. It's a purpose-built entity incorporated in 2017 specifically to manage charitable fundraising through licensed lottery activity, and it doesn't operate any consumer gambling websites.

The company has held a continuous UKGC licence since June 2018, now over seven years without interruption. That unbroken record contributes directly to its stability score of 100 and a trust grade of B. There are no enforcement actions on record, which is the strongest indicator of compliance for any operator.

RNIB Direct Services Lottery Limited is fully UK-based with all directors resident in the United Kingdom and no offshore parent structure. Its domestic score of 100 reflects that entirely UK-rooted governance, with no offshore licences or penalty deductions applied.
