Five people in this PO postcode have won £1,000 on the People's Postcode Lottery

The Shaftesbury Avenue neighbours picked up the cash prize when PO7 5HP was announced as a People’s Postcode Lottery Daily Prize winner for today.

It is the last postcode in our area to scoop a windfall through the draw.

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Matt Johnson said: ‘A huge congratulations to our winners in Waterlooville today – what a way to kick start the weekend! I’m sure the windfall will help lift their spirits and I hope they can treat themselves to something special.’

At least 32 per cent of ticket sales goes to charities, and players of People’s Postcode Lottery have raised over £500m to date for thousands of good causes in Britain and beyond.

The latest draw was promoted by Amnesty International UK, which has received more than £8.1m to help protect women, men and children wherever justice, freedom, truth, and dignity are denied.
