Mr N, who played a Lucky Dip via The National Lottery website, has become one of over eight million players that win each week on The National Lottery’s range of games.
Camelot’s Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at The National Lottery, said: “Massive congratulations to Mr N, he has certainly started 2022 with a bang! He can now look forward to making amazing memories with his new-found fortune.”
More than £30 million is generated for National Lottery-funded projects each week by players, while, to date, over £45 billion has been raised and distributed to National Lottery Good Causes through more than 660,000 individual grants.
Over £1.2 billion is being used by charities and organisations affected by the impact of the coronavirus outbreak, which includes over £600m in funding support from the National Lottery Community Fund to help groups best placed to support people and communities through the crisis.
