Crawley neighbours celebrate postcode lottery win

Seven people in Scott Road neighbours netted the windfall when RH10 5DD was announced as a Daily Prize winner with People’s Postcode Lottery on Thursday June 11.

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Danyl Johnson sent his well-wishes to the winners.

He said: “What great news for our winners! I’m thrilled for them and I hope they enjoy their 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 £500 million to date for thousands of good causes in Britain and beyond, a spokesman said.

This draw was promoted by Girlguiding which has received over £5.2 million in funding from the players of People’s Postcode Lottery.

Girlguiding is active in every part of the UK, giving girls and young women a space where they can be themselves, have fun, build brilliant friendships, gain valuable life skills and make a positive difference to their lives and their communities.

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