Expert Opinion
Block unknown numbers immediately to avoid potential scams. This caller poses as a representative for Zoe's Place Hospice lottery, managed by Your Hospice Lottery, but reports overwhelmingly flag it as fraudulent. Many recipients describe aggressive donation requests exploiting a children's charity, which legitimate organisations avoid. Verify any charity calls directly on official websites or via trusted sources like the Fundraising Regulator. Enable call screening on your phone to filter out suspicious area codes. If pressured for funds, hang up and report to Action Fraud. Stay vigilant—scammers prey on goodwill, so question unsolicited pleas for money.

Since the number was unfamiliar, I let it go to voicemail, mentioning Middlesborough, though I have no ties there
Calling Zoe's Place directly reveals that their Lottery is run by Your Hospice Lottery, and they use this number to recruit callers.
A fraudulent request for hospice donations, absolutely appalling.
They said they were conducting a survey but the questions felt invasive. Probably not worth it.
Got a call from this number during dinner time. They hung up when I answered. Probably just a wrong number.
Random call that went to voicemail with no message. Ignored it.
Do not answer
Called but didn't leave a message. Probably nothing important, just annoying.
Fraudeur potentiel
They claimed to be from Zoe’s Place hospice, promoting a monthly lottery; after I answered they learned my local area code and I told them I had no time to talk – using a children’s hospice for a scam is absolutely disgusting.
This caller was a fraud.
Three calls in two days led me to call back, only to hear a recorded message about a 'Your Hospice Lottery'—I don't know them, so I blocked it, suspecting a scam.
