People have been winning the lottery after their postcode was announced.

Residents in St Albans are having a wonderful Wednesday, as their postcode, AL3 8RB, was announced as the winner of People’s Postcode Lottery’s Daily Prize yesterday.

The three Park Field neighbours have netted £1,000 for each ticket they play with thanks to the win.

A minimum of 32 per cent 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 received funding thanks to players, and the next opportunity to apply for funding will be in February.

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Judie McCourt sent her congratulations and said: “Congratulations to all of our winners in St Albans today! I hope they enjoy the prize and treat themselves to something nice. It’s great that local good causes are also benefitting thanks to support from our players.”
