All five winners live in Buttercup Way and they netted the windfall when CV12 0GJ was announced as a

Daily Prize winner with People’s Postcode Lottery. They were the Daily Prize draw winners on June 2 and they are all now planning on how to spend their money.

Judie Mccourt, People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador, sent her wellwishes to the winners, saying: “I’m thrilled for our winners, what a great surprise for them!

“I hope they enjoy their winnings.” Only last week, residents in a street in Nuneaton scooped cash in the Daily Prize draw.

Fourteen neighbours on Cambridge Drive won £1,000 each.
