Great weekend for one Northampton street after five people win £1,000 each

Five people in Northampton were celebrating over the weekend after winning £1,000 each thanks to their lucky postcode.

The Crowthorp Road neighbours netted the windfall when NN3 5DU was announced as a Daily Prize winner with People’s Postcode Lottery on Sunday October 4, 2020.

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Danyl Johnson sent his well-wishes to the winners. He said: “What a fantastic way to round off your weekend! Congratulations to our winners, I hope they have fun 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 over £600 million to date for thousands of good causes in Britain and beyond.

This draw was promoted on behalf of the Guide Dogs for The Blind Association which has received £2.8 million worth of funding from the players of People’s Postcode Lottery. It works towards a future where everyone with sight loss can live confidently, actively and independently.

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