POT, THERE’S £25MILLION

-

WE all dream about what we’d do with a big cash windfall – so imagine lucky Londoner Theo Foster’s delight when he won £31,000 in a double win with People’s Postcode Lottery.

December’s an expensive time of year for us all – so winning big was extra-special for 30-year-old Theo and his neighbours when their E15 postcode became a prize winner in December 2019.

Residents of Park Road in Newham scooped £30,000 each just in time for Christmas – only to win a second cash prize of £1,000 each two months later.

The money couldn’t have come at a better time for Theo, whose wife was due to give birth at the time. “We’ve had to buy a new car, as well as a new cot and buggy,” he said at the time.

“I’m so glad I started playing. It’s also great to know that some of the money we pay each month goes towards local causes and charities. It really makes this win extra-special to me.”

Theo’s good fortune meant he could afford to take precious time off when his daughter Inori was born. “Just having the financial freedom has been great. It’s removed the stress and lets believe his good luck. getting a new one,” he said. People’s Postcode Lottery soon after their last one, is such a great start to the week.” Pat was another December winner who won £30,000 when she and her neighbours bagged a total of £240,000 in People’s Postcode Lottery after their Sheffield postcode came up trumps.

“I’ve only been playing for three months so to win £30,000 already is fantastic!” said Pat.

She added: “I want to give some to St Luke’s Hospice in Sheffield where my husband passed away. I will also treat myself to a holiday. I’m still full of butterflie­s but it’s a great feeling, and I’d recommend anyone who isn’t playing to have a go now!”

I started playing People’s Postcode Lottery as I think it’s important to give to charity and help people worse off than you. Nicola, who won £30,000
