Bo'ness neighbours scoop cash prize on People's Postcode Lottery

The residents in the town’s Bridgeness Road netted £1000 each when EH51 9LH was announced as a daily prize winner with People’s Postcode Lottery today (Tuesday, August 11).

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Judie McCourt sent her well-wishes to the winners.

She said: “Congratulations to our winners! I’m sure this news has made their day and I hope they enjoy their winnings.”

A minimum of 32 per cent of ticket sales goes directly to charities and players of People’s Postcode Lottery have raised over £600 million to date for thousands of good causes in Britain and beyond.

This draw was promoted by Girlguiding which has received over £5.8 million in funding from the players of People’s Postcode Lottery.

Girlguiding is active in every part of the UK, giving girls and young women a space where they can be themselves, have fun, build brilliant friendships, gain valuable life skills and make a positive difference to their lives and their communities.

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