NEIGHBOURS are beating the Monday blues after their postcode was announced as a daily prize winner in the People’s Postcode Lottery.
Eight lucky New Farm Lodge residents have each won a £1,000 prize for every ticket that they hold after CO3 0PZ came out of the hat this morning.
Judie McCourt, People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador, said: “Congratulations to our Colchester winners! I hope they all have a great time spending their winnings.”
A minimum of 32 per cent of ticket sales goes directly to charities and players of People’s Postcode Lottery have raised £361 million to date for 4,000 good causes across Great Britain and internationally.
A number of local causes have benefitted from the money raised, and the next opportunity to apply for funding will be in January.
