Carer from Hastings wins a million on lottery
A Hastings man has scooped one million pounds in a big National Lottery win.
The man, who is a carer, matched five main numbers and the Bonus Ball in the The National Lottery EuroMillions Millionaire Maker Raffle draw on Saturday May 2 to become a millionaire.
The winner, a father in his mid-fifties, has bought a ticket every week using family birthday dates, and will undertake home renovations now that he has become a winner.
Talking about his win he said, “I got up in the morning and checked my Lotto ticket on the National Lottery app and then checked again as I couldn’t believe what I was seeing! This win will allow me to do the work I need to do to the house and gives me financial security for the future.”
Kathy Garrett, Senior Winners’ Advisor at Allwyn, operator of The National Lottery, congratulated the prize winner, saying, “What wonderful news for our winner. Playing weekly has paid off, good luck with the house renovation.”
Each week, players help generate around £33 million for National Lottery-funded projects. With over £53 billion raised for Good Causes since launch, this funds hundreds of projects in every postcode area across the UK. From supporting the arts and sport sectors, to empowering local community groups and preserving iconic British landmarks.
Players can buy and check their tickets online by downloading the National Lottery app or at national-lottery.co.uk.
