A VOLUNTEER is needed to run a popular lottery scheme.

Darlington FC Supporters Group is appealing for someone to take over the running of its popular lottery.

The scheme has raised tens of thousands of pounds for the football club since 2012 and rewards participants with the opportunity to win weekly cash prizes and a monthly super draw.

Previously run by board members Colin and Margaret Tinkler, the competition is now in need of a new administrator.

The volunteer will need to be organised and methodical, preferably with a background in sales or marketing.

Anyone interested in the role should email wayne.raper@darlingtonfc.org to discuss further.
