Big Festivities In Blandford Forum

The bank balance of one lucky Blandford Forum resident is going to be topped up with £25,000 today! Their postcode, DT11 0QP, scooped one of this weekend's two Saturday Street Prizes.

Unfortunately, they weren't around to collect their cheque, but their winnings will be deposited directly into their bank account.

Street Prize Presenter Danyl Johnson said, "What an amazing win for one lucky player in Blandford Forum! Thanks so much to all our players, and we hope to see you soon."

Players of People's Postcode Lottery have raised more than £148 Million to date for good causes across Great Britain and internationally.

A project near Blandford Forum that has received support from players is Milborne St Andrew Village Hall, which was awarded £4,500 this year to create a community garden.

Also this weekend, players in Southsea scooped £25,000 for each ticket, a winner in Worthing will be jetting off with the Dream Holidays prize, the BMW and £5,000 prizes were won in Bridgend, and the fabulous October Postcode Millions landed in High Wycombe.
