Wellbeing Fund
What is the Wellbeing Fund?
The Lucky Fridays Lottery rules provide for up to 20% of the lottery income to be set aside in a wellbeing fund. The Wellbeing Fund may then be used by the Executive Committee of the NPT Health and Wellbeing Group to fund initiatives that benefit the wellbeing of the Group’s members.
A list of current wellbeing initiatives in place are as follows:
Perkz
This is a discount scheme available to everyone who is a member of the NPT Health and Wellbeing Group. Perkz offers discounts off over 400 high street retailers.
You register for the scheme by visiting the website.
You will need your NPT Health and Wellbeing membership number when you register, NOT your pay number. This will have been e-mailed or texted to you when you first applied to join the NPT Health and Wellbeing Group. If you have forgotten your membership number, then just e-mail Luckyfridays@npt.gov.uk and we will confirm your number back to you.
See our Perkz/Reward Gateway page for more information.
Cinema nights
We purchase private screenings and discounted tickets at local cinemas of popular films from time to time. Not only do you get a great discount on your cinema ticket, but there is a great deal included too on drinks and food.
