Lucky postcode draw for Point neighbours

Four Islanders are celebrating this week after winning £1,000 each thanks to their lucky postcode.

The Point neighbours netted the windfall when HS2 0PL was announced as a daily prize winner in the People’s Postcode Lottery.

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Judie McCourt sent her well-wishes to the winners.

She said: “What great news for our winners! Congratulations to them and I hope they get themselves a treat with their winnings.”

A minimum of 32% of ticket sales from the People’s Postcode Lottery goes directly to charities and players have raised over £500 million to date for thousands of good causes in Britain and beyond.

This draw was promoted by Crisis which has received over £3.8 million in funding from the players of People’s Postcode Lottery.

Crisis is dedicated to ending homelessness and helps approximately 10,000 people each year through education, housing, employment and health services.

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