TWO people in Evesham woke up to the news that they had won a cash prize.

The lucky postcode, WR11 8AA, has been announced as a daily prize winner with People’s Postcode Lottery.

Thanks to the win, the Top Croft Row neighbours have landed a prize of £1,000 each for every ticket that they hold.

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Judie McCourt said: “What better way to beat than January blues than by winning the lottery! I couldn’t be more thrilled for our players in Evesham who have picked up a prize today and I hope they treat themselves to something special with the windfall.”

A minimum of 32% of ticket sales goes directly to charities and players of People’s Postcode Lottery have raised £382 million to date for 5,500 good causes across Great Britain and internationally.

Many good causes local to the winners have benefitted from the money raised, and the next opportunity to apply for funding will be on February 6.
