COMMUINITY groups across Peebles are being sought to be nominated to receive a £10,000 donation towards the work they do in the area.

To officially launch its donation programme in Scotland, new company Multilotto is offering the money to local causes.

Andrew Clarke, Head of Communications for Multilotto, said: “In Peebles and across Scotland, there are many ordinary people and organisations that do extraordinary things for their local communities.

“We want those people and groups to get in touch and tell us what they could do with a £10,000 donation.”

Nominations can be put forward at www.multilotto.co.uk/goodcause. The closing date for entries is Friday, October 20.

The winning cause will be chosen by a Multilotto panel of judges and will be presented with the £10,000 donation during November.

Multilotto was first launched in Sweden in 2012, and recently went live in the UK.
