Lottie's pledge of regular giveaways and gifted stays to UK Carers
Ongoing competition giveaways to champion and reward care workers, family caregivers and unpaid carers.
Recent Giveaway
We kickstarted our Nights on Lottie pledge with a Christmas and New Year's Special in 2022. Lottie partnered with Unplugged to give carers a chance to relax and unwind by gifting 33 winners a free 3-night stay at a beautiful countryside cabin of their choice.
The winners were chosen at random and were able to book their three-night stay at one of Unplugged's cabin using a unique code and on any date in 2023, to rest and recharge at a time convenient to them.
While sadly not every carer could be a winner of the 2022 Christmas giveaway, we're already in the process of organising the next Nights on Lottie, as part of our wider 1,000 free nights pledge.
Current Giveaway
Throughout December we'll be running our own carers Christmas countdown, giving away a selection of vouchers to a new winner each day.
From Tuesday 5th to Friday 15th December, we'll be giving away a different prize each day to a carer in the UK.
Nominate yourself today and share your experience of being a carer in 2023 to win theatre tickets, Sainsbury's vouchers and much more, so you can enjoy the ultimate night in or out on Lottie this Christmas.

Rachel worked in care for six years in her local community and loved making people smile. After her son Riley had an accident, she had to stop work and needed financial help. Her six years work in care meant she qualified for a grant, helping her through a tough period in her life.

Support Services for Carers
If you're struggling, here's where to seek financial, practical, and emotional support from.
Financial
Right now, the UK is facing a cost-of-living-crisis that's affecting everyone. If you're a carer or care worker and you're struggling, you're not alone. There is financial support available from a range of organisations.
Practical
Juggling care responsibilities and work or family commitments can be incredibly overwhelming. If you're finding it tough to care for a family member, or you're struggling with work, it's important to seek support.
Emotional
Working or providing care is rewarding, but can be challenging. It's more important than ever before to prioritise your mental health. From support from MIND to REThink, it's time to focus on you.
Heating or eating should never have to be a choice
The Care Workers Charity need your help to ensure care workers can feed their families and keep up with the rising household bills.
