Now you can join the Cue and Review Print Speaking to the Blind Weather Lottery, right now, online. Not only do you get the chance to win up to ?10,000 but you can now do it immediately from the comfort of your home or office computer.
Follow the Weather Lottery link on our right hand bar and click the play online button. Make sure however you choose Cue and Review Recording Service.
For every ?3 donated to Cue and Review - Print Speaking to the Blind you are buying a tape and postal wallet to make sure that Britain`s blind community can access the range of talking newspapers produced by us. Please help us to raise much-needed funds to expand and develop Cue and Review Recording Service by playing our New Fantastic Lottery.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Choose six numbers from 0 to 9 and enter them in the centre panel inside the leaflet. If your numbers match the last digit of the daily Fahrenheit temperatures (in the right order) of Corfu, Istanbul, Tenerife, Innsbruck, Edinburgh and Stockholm, you win the top prize of "?"10,000!
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
Each entry line (i.e. each set of 6 numbers) costs ?1 per week (25p per day). There is a draw every day from Monday to Thursday, so you have a chance of winning a prize 4 times a week! You pay monthly by standing order.
WHERE DOES MY MONEY GO?
All the money is kept securely in a stakeholder fund, and more than a third comes back to our organisation.
HOW DO I KNOW IF I'VE WON?
You can check your numbers in the Daily Telegraph or by calling 0113 275 0002. However, there is no need for you to check them as all prizes are guaranteed
Notes to Editors:
Cue and Review Recording Service is Scotland's largest independently funded talking newspaper group, transcribing fifteen print magazines and newspapers into audio formats for the benefit of visually and reading impaired people.
Cue and Review Recording Service is one of over 600 talking newspapers and magazine groups throughout the United Kingdom, but the only one providing the specific titles that it records.
Cue and Review Recording Service is based in Bishopbriggs, Glasgow. It is a Scottish registered charity and a company limited by guarantee but without share capital. As a non statutory organisation it must raise every penny it spends. Income is drawn from membership fees, donations, street collections, individual grants and from transcription work carried out for public and private sector clients. This helps them meet their responsibilities under the Disability Discrimination Act 1995. In 2006 over 5,000 Scots were helped by the charity specifically through its recording of public/private sector information.
Since January 2004 the service has introduced a membership fee which presently stands at 70p per week enabling people to gain access to the full range of audio titles.
