On June 10th, the National Lottery marked the culmination of its 30th anniversary celebrations with a special evening reception held at Speaker’s House. Deaffest Co-Founders and Festival Directors Nikki Stratton and Marilyn Willrich – recognised as two of the National Lottery Arts & Film Game Changers – attended the event at the Palace of Westminster in London. They joined fellow Game Changers, Members of Parliament, peers, and partners in commemorating the milestone!
The reception highlighted the National Lottery’s three decades of transformative contributions, showcasing the substantial funds raised for Good Causes and the impact of more than 650,000 grants awarded across the arts, heritage, sport, and community sectors. The event also looked ahead, celebrating ongoing efforts to support and uplift communities nationwide. Learn more about the event here!
