Three people in Beith are celebrating after they recently won £1,000 each thanks to their lucky postcode.

The Bellmans Close neighbours netted the windfall when KA15 2AX was announced as a daily prize winner with People’s Postcode Lottery on Friday, February 5.

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Judie McCourt sent her well wishes to the winners.

She said: “Congratulations to all the winners in KA15 2AX, it is brilliant news.

“I hope they all enjoy spending their winnings.”

A minimum of 32 per cent of ticket sales goes directly to charities, and players of the People’s Postcode Lottery have raised over £600million to date for thousands of good causes in Britain and beyond.

This draw was promoted on behalf of the Postcode Innovation Trust which has a mission to support charities and social enterprises to deliver impactful, innovative and engaging initiatives across the country.

Many good causes close to the winners have also benefitted from players’ support, and local charities can apply for funding next year.
