Nottingham residents celebrating People's Postcode Lottery £1,000 win

Eight lucky residents in Nottingham are celebrating after winning £1,000 each thanks to their postcode.

The Mays Avenue, Bakersfield neighbours landed the windfall when NG4 1AU was announced as a People’s Postcode Lottery Daily Prize winner on Tuesday December 29.

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Danyl Johnson said: “What a great surprise for our winners, congratulations to them. I’m sure they will have fun with their winnings and I hope they go and treat themselves to something special.”

A minimum of 32% of ticket sales goes directly to charities and players of People’s Postcode Lottery have raised over £600 million to date for thousands of good causes in Britain and beyond.

This draw was promoted on behalf of Crisis which has received more than £5.7 million in funding thanks to players. The charity is dedicated to ending homelessness and throughout the year helps approximately 10,000 people in England, Scotland and Wales.

Many good causes close to the winners have also benefitted from players’ support, and local charities can apply for funding next year.
