Lottery windfall comes at just the right time for these Bedfordshire neighbours

Five people in Flitwick are celebrating after winning £1,000 each thanks to their lucky postcode.

The Tennyson Road neighbours netted the windfall when MK45 1QN was announced as a daily prize winner with People’s Postcode Lottery yesterday (November 24).

And it couldn't come at a better time in the run-up to Christmas as many of us have lost our jobs, been furloughed and face being short of cash during the coronavirus pandemic.

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Danyl Johnson said: “Congratulations to all the winners in MK45 1QN, brilliant news. I hope you enjoy spending your winnings.”

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

This draw was promoted on behalf of the Postcode Care Trust Postcode Care Trust which has a mission to support activities that improve the health and lives of communities. The Trust supports charities and good causes with those purposes through grant funding.
