SOME lucky neighbours in Clackmannan were celebrating this week after winning £1,000 each in the People’s Postcode Lottery.

Four of the town’s residents netted the windfall on September 8 after FK10 4JP was announced as the daily prize-winning postcode.

Judie McCourt, ambassador for the postcode lottery, said: “What lovely news for our winners.

“Congratulations to them and I hope they enjoy spending their winnings.”

Just last month, four others in Kincardine also scooped £1,000 each through the People's Postcode Lottery, and it was a similar story for six residents of Chapelle Crescent in Tillicoultry back in 2018.

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 good causes.

This latest prize draw was promoted on behalf of Clic Sargent, which has received more than £10.9 million in funding thanks to players.

The charity provides vital emotional, practical, financial and clinical support to young cancer patients and their families during and after treatment.
