Allwyn commits full support to Levelling Up agenda

Allwyn, the UK corporate entity of SAZKA Group has announced it has signed up to Justine Greening’s Levelling Up Goals campaign to help promote equal opportunities in the UK.

The Levelling Up Goals alliance brings together a variety of UK universities and businesses together to help track progress made in terms of equal opportunities for jobs in the UK.

The partnership helps to create opportunities by monitoring the progress relating to key life events of people of all backgrounds to ensure that, regardless of race, class, gender or sexuality, young people have to opportunity to reach the same career path as others.

Levelling Up Goals Co-Founder Justine Greening commented: “I’m really looking forward to working with Sir Keith Mills and the team at Allwyn on its levelling up work and helping the organisation have maximum impact on communities across the UK.

“Allwyn takes the standpoint that lotteries should drive considerable social value and it has a real chance to spread opportunity through its work.”

The Fourth tender for the UK National Lottery license is currently underway, in which Allwyn is battling the current incumbents Camelot, India’s Sugal & Damani and Italy’s Sisal.

The winner of the tender is due to be announced in February next year, followed by a two-year handover period.

Sir Keith Mills, Allywin’s Bid Chair for the National Lottery, added: “At Allwyn, as part of SAZKA Group, we make lotteries better so that they can serve as a force for good. Through the Levelling Up Goals architecture, we look forward to working closely with Justine Greening, her team, and the other committed businesses and universities, on this joint ambition to make a positive impact to our communities.”
