The plan
Launch once. Go again. And again. And again.
Unwritten is a machine. We turn everyday tickets into real wins for real people, and real cash for causes that matter. The founding draw kicks it off. Everything else follows.
Chapter one
Launch
The founding window proves the model. Enough of us say yes, we open a short pay window, and the first prize is real. Sixty pence to the winner. Twenty pence to Samaritans. Fifteen pence to keep the engine on. Five pence carries to next week. Nothing pooled, nothing held.
The kick-off generates the cash for the second draw. The second generates the third. That is how we go again.
Chapter two
Go again
Every Friday at 8pm, London time. Provably fair against a public random beacon. Same split, same rules, same free postal route. The machine keeps turning. Every cycle funds the next.
Chapter three
What we launch as we grow
Good causes
Samaritans first. More partners join as members vote them in. Every pound accounted for on the public ledger.
Membership help
Hardship draws. Quiet grants for people who need a hand. No press release, no photo op.
Votes on prize direction
Members choose what the pot funds next. A cheque, a cause, a category. You decide, together.
People who deserve wins
Nominate someone. A nurse, a neighbour, a teacher. The community picks who gets the next quiet gift.
Chapter four
Smaller prizes. More useful ones.
We are not only chasing a million-pound headline. A month of childcare. A year of energy bills. A working van. A deposit on somewhere to live. A cheque written to a charity in a member's name. The big cash prizes stay on the table. Useful prizes sit right alongside them.
Chapter five
Where we are aiming
Overtake Omaze. Overtake the raffle incumbents. Not by shouting louder. By being more honest, more useful and more fun. Every pound accounted for on the public ledger. Every draw verifiable. Every winner named. Every week, real cash to a cause that needs it.
This only works if enough of us are in.
Back the launch. Invite a friend. That is the whole ask.
