🎉 How the People’s Postcode Lottery Works
The People’s Postcode Lottery is a subscription-based draw that does more than just hand out cash. It also gives back in a big way:
-
At least 33% of every ticket goes to charity
-
Over £950 million has been raised since 2005
-
Funding has supported 9,000+ charities and local causes
On top of the daily £1,000 prizes (awarded to 20 postcodes every single day), there are also £30,000 weekend jackpots for every winning ticket in a selected postcode. Not bad for playing close to home.
So if you’re in the North East, especially around Darlington, Redcar, or Cramlington, this past week might’ve been your lucky one. And if not? There’s always the next draw.
