Having done a bit of research myself the Big Win Health Lottery looks the best value, £1 per ticket for £100k max win with odds being about 2.1m/1. Is anyone aware of any better?

No need to research it, it’s all rigged to waste your money, quit while you’re ahead you’ll thank yourself later, not worth gambling your money away
The trick is to only play lotteries during multiple rollovers where the total prize pot exceeds the value of the tickets bought. If you follow this strategy* you will come out ahead.
(*over several billion years)
Omaze and possibly postcode lottery might be easier to win than lotto and euromillions.
Fuck the lottery.
A much better plan is to put the money you would spend on tickets into a stocks and shares ISA (or similar investment), not look at it, let it grow, and then enjoy the profits much later in life.
500k thunderbolt, with 8m/1 is slightly better odds. But I don’t know how the smaller prices affects the overall odds on return.
Premium bonds. You can have £25 min,£50k max. Any “tickets” that don’t win get carried over and you can get your money back if you need it. Nothing lost. Average 4% return per year, obviously skewed by £1m winners.
I wait for the very few times they do the 10 guaranteed millionaires on Euromillions. Thats raffle codes that have been pre-generated, not just the luck of someone choosing all the right numbers.
Lotto Must Be Won weeks yield a better result for getting fewer numbers if no-one gets the jackpot that week. I often at least get back £5 + a lucky dip for getting 2 numbers those weeks.
If ever you think of buying a lottery ticket, buy a share jn a company.
