In October, multiple postcodes across Sussex celebrated winning prizes in the People's Postcode Lottery. Residents expressed gratitude after several local postcodes were drawn as winners in the monthly lottery.
The People's Postcode Lottery is a subscription-based lottery designed to raise funds for charities while awarding cash prizes to UK households. From Monday to Friday, 20 different postcodes across the UK each win £1,000 daily.
Winning postcodes from October's daily draws, starting October 4, have been publicly announced. Several Sussex postcodes were among those awarded prizes during the month.
“Every month, players in a postcode sector share £3.2 million or more. In this example, £1.6 million of this will be shared equally by tickets playing with the winning postcode, with the other £1.6 million being shared equally by tickets playing with the winning postcode sector.”
The community spirit and generosity embedded in the lottery model benefit both winners and charities.
