Residents on this Bolton street start weekend £1,000 richer with Postcode Lottery win

Those who live on Hastings Road in Bolton and play the Postcode Lottery had their postcode, BL1 4NG, drawn on Saturday, May 18.

Everyone on the street who has an eligible ticket will receive the daily prize of £1,000, alongside the other 19 winning postcodes that were drawn today.

Postcode Lottery is a subscription-based lottery that raises money for charities.

Not only do players win cash prizes, but good causes also receive essential support.

Your postcode works as your ticket, and for £12.50 a month, you’re entered into every prize draw, and there are guaranteed winners every day.

People play with their chosen postcode and are automatically entered into all draws.

Prizes include the weekly Millionaire Street prize and monthly £250,000 or Postcode Millions prizes.

If your postcode gets picked in the £250,000 prize, for example, every ticket in that postcode wins £250,000.

Every day, there are £1,000 prizes to be won for every ticket in 20 postcodes.

If you play with two tickets, you receive double the winning prize amount.

The results of the prize draws can be found on the Postcode Lottery website.

Players have raised more than £1.7 billion for thousands of good causes in Britain and internationally, supporting charities including Maggie’s, Alzheimer’s Society, Dogs Trust, Mind and NSPCC, as well as thousands of small local community projects.
