Two residents scoop £377,000 each as Yorkshire's Postcode Lottery goldrush continues
Two people have won more than £350,000 as the Postcode Lottery goldrush in Yorkshire continues.
The pair have scooped £377,224 after Keighley’s BD20 6JL postcode was the latest winner of the lottery’s Millionaire Street prize.
Incredibly, it’s the fourth big win for Yorkshire in the last couple of weeks.
On Sunday (Oct 25), the village of Dacre, near Harrogate, was announced as the winner of the lottery’s Millionaire Street prize after HG3 4AP was drawn.
It meant one lucky winner bagged a total of £378,282, while 88 other people in the surrounding area get a share of the prize as part of the HG3 4 postcode area.
It means they have won between £6,155 and £18,465, depending on how many tickets they play with.
Just one day later, villagers in Birdsedge, near Huddersfield, were celebrating scooping a share of £1m as part of the same promotion.
One lucky winner scooped more than £350,000, with 19 other neighbours won at least £45,000.
On October 31, two winners in Bridlington won £500,000 and £250,000 each on the lottery.
The rest of Keighley’s £1m post was shared between 659 players in the wider BD20 6 postcode sector, with prizes ranging from £335 to £2,010 depending on the number of tickets winners played with.
Postcode Lottery ambassador Judie McCourt said: “We’re back in Yorkshire with more winners.
“Congratulations to the two players who have won the biggest share of our weekly £1m prize, especially nice with Christmas just around the corner. And, of course, their win means that hundreds of others in the area have also picked up prizes, too.”
