BHG Maybach Bingo!

Maybach Bingo
A new fundraising idea has been created, to Benefit all of the BHG Maybachs.

The game is based upon the Lottery Bonus Ball as drawn every Wednesday and Saturday in the National Lottery.

Each player needs to pick 6 numbers and if yours come in first there's a good prize to be had and, of course, the Maybach's win Every Time!. Proceeds are split 50/50 between Locos and Prizes.

Each line of 6 numbers (from 1 to 59) costs just £20, you can have as many lines as you choose (additional £20 per line). The more players, the more you (and the Maybachs) can win!

The games can last anything from 3 weeks minimum but often a couple of months until a House! Draw numbers are monitored by our Bingo Master, so you can just sit back and watch the weekly updates.

For more information and joining instructions, please send an email to

Good Luck!
