Southwick has two People’s Postcode Lottery wins in three days

Five neighbours were celebrating on Friday, when their postcode BN42 4DX was announced as a Daily Prize winner.

Then three neighbours with the postcode BN42 4LL were greeted with the news it was a Daily Prize winner on Sunday.

The Grange Court neighbours who netted the windfall of £1,000 each were congratulated on Friday by People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Judie McCourt.

She said: “What a great way to start the weekend. Congratulations to our winners, I think they’ll be celebrating tonight.”

Then, when the three neighbours in St Louie Close won £1,000 each two days later, People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Danyl Johnson said: “Congratulations to our winners. What great news for them and I hope they go and treat themselves with 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 £600million to date for thousands of good causes in Britain and beyond.

Friday’s draw was promoted by Save the Children, which has received more than £10.1million in funding from the players of People’s Postcode Lottery, and Sunday’s draw was promoted by The Ramblers, which works to protect and expand the places where people love to walk.
