Five people in this PO postcode have won on the People’s Postcode Lottery

The Aberdare Avenue neighbours netted the windfall when PO6 2AU was announced as a Daily Prize winner with People’s Postcode Lottery on Tuesday August 4.

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Danyl Johnson said: ‘What a great surprise for our winners! I’m thrilled for them and I hope this news has made their day.’

They are just the latest residents in our area to strike it lucky on the postcode lottery in recent months.

A minimum of 32 per cent of ticket sales goes directly to charities and players of People’s Postcode Lottery have raised over £500 million to date for thousands of good causes in Britain and beyond.

This draw was promoted by Depaul which has received over £10.8 million in funding from the players of People’s Postcode Lottery.

Depaul is a nationwide charity for youth homelessness, working to tackle the immediate and long-term effects of homelessness and provide better opportunities for young people.

Many good causes close to the winners have also benefitted from players’ support, and local charities can now apply for funding.
