Frances and Patrick, who lived in Hartlepool for 25 years, had said that their first priority was a list of around 50 friends and family to share their amazing fortune with following their big win on New Year’s Day 2019. Going against all the usual stereotypical champagne lifestyle that might be expected of huge jackpot winners, the pair have set up two charitable foundations: the Kathleen Graham Trust in Northern Ireland, where they are both from originally, and the PFC Trust in County Durham, where they now live.

The couples good deeds have included buying 1,000 or more presents for patients who will be in hospital on Christmas Day away from loved ones and handing out hundreds of tablets for people who found themselves isolated during the coronavirus lockdown so that they can still keep in touch and not feel so lonely.

Wanting to show their appreciation for the ‘selfless’ actions of hard-working carers in the area; Michele and Kevin formed a Christmas hamper group with other Lottery winners from the comfort of their own homes due to current coronavirus restrictions to create more than 100 luxury hampers to show seasonal thanks. Packed with a range of goodies for carers from Age Concern Central Lancashire as a heartfelt ‘thank you’ for all of the carers’ tireless work throughout the COVID pandemic.

Michele said: “All the efforts and lengths these carers go to, so selflessly and the sacrifices they make every single day, to provide care and love, is incredible. I was absolutely thrilled to be involved in such a heart-warming project to say ‘thank you’ and show our appreciation for all they do”.

“I absolutely love Christmas and thoroughly enjoyed crafting the hampers. Everyone all needs a bit of festive cheer at the moment so it was fantastic to be able to help make Christmas arrive early!”

The winners, who under normal circumstances would normally be brought together by The National Lottery in the run-up to Christmas to help support various charities, adapted their thinking this year by creating a Whatsapp group so they could work from their own homes but share ideas and creations with each other as they made their hampers; Also joining the festive hamper making were some of the biggest region lottery winners, including Patricia and John Gill, from Warrington, who won £1M in 2015 and Sharon and Nigel Mather, from Bowdon in Cheshire, who won an amazing £12M in 2010.

The hampers, after being quarantined appropriately to ensure all required guidelines were adhered to, were delivered to Age Concern Central Lancashire’s Dementia Day Support Centres in Bamber Bridge and Fulwood Preston, aboard a fabulous festive truck.

Months after his jackpot win, Steve still works as a builder – After his win the builder promised not to let his customers down: but for what reason?

The new multi-millionaires told the Mirror newspaper after their win that they would take a couple of weeks holiday but intend to continue working. Thomson called the Jackpot win ‘really overwhelming’, which is very understandable. Steve and his wife Lenka say the money is ‘too much’ for them. The couple want to do a lot of good things with the money and, in his own words, Steve is going to be ‘sensibly generous’, he goes on to say he was ‘on the verge of having a heart attack’ when he realised he had matched all seven numbers after his win!

Mr Steve Thomson and his wife, shopworker Lenka, 41, said they plan to buy a new home so their children 8-year-old daughter & two sons aged 10 and 15 can finally have their own bedrooms. He also said the couple had made no big purchases as yet, just window shopping – although he did admit he went and bought himself a new shirt and had a haircut for when he was presented with the cheque.

A friend and neighbour of the family, Ellie Wood, 42, said: ‘Steve and his wife are salt of the earth. I’m not surprised that Steve is continuing to finish off work he had already on his books – that’s just the type of guy he is. He’d never leave anyone in the lurch’.

‘I’m just a normal guy and I don’t want this to change me. I’m a man of my word and I promised I would complete the work so that’s what I will do.’ While he was working on a customers porch, a neighbour enquired about having a new front door fitted at their home too. ‘Steve was happy enough to take on new work and made an appointment to visit the man’s address,’ an onlooker said.

One of the most amazing parts of winning the lottery is sharing your fortunate news, right? But not for Paula Williamson, who waited five weeks to inform her family and friends. She kept her £1,000,000 EuroMillions win to herself…but for what reason?

One of her sons was travelling for a month, She didn’t want to share the victorious news over the phone, so the millionaire decided to wait for him to come back home.

The EuroMillions player from Barnsley wanted to celebrate her win with both of her sons, but there was one person of course who was aware of her extreme fortune – her husband.

“I told Geoff because that would have been so tough keeping the winning news from him, but we both decided we wanted to surprise Jack and Ian at the same time”, Williamson continues with “Celebrating the winning moment is something we wanted to ensure we would remember forever as a family.”

The winning dinner lady from Barnsley is in no rush to spend her new-found fortune. She’s currently working at the Hill Primary Academy and doesn’t intend to leave her job anytime soon, Williamson will use most of her money to make her sons happy – She’s thinking about buying a new home for each of them to have as their own or as an investment in the future.

“I keep having to pinch myself and tell myself that I really am a millionaire. We are not going to rush into spending it all but will have a splash out” concluded the £1,000,000 winner.

Lottery winner Tim Carson, from Essex UK, landed a huge prize in The Health Lottery’s monthly Mega Raffle draw. When the 49-year-old realised he had won, he kept quiet. He didn’t tell his wife, Alison.

Why did he hide his win? He wanted to make a big reveal. He wanted to announce a plan to buy their dream home with the winnings as a present for her standing by him after he was forced to retire as a police officer through ill-health.

This happened just one week before they were looking to move home just to save money. Alison Carson, 51, was looking into moving out of her flat of 22 years and into a retirement village to save money.

Now, they’re going to use the money to finally buy their dream house, six years after their married.

Tim said: “We always said that we would buy a house if we won money with the lottery.

So this is my present to Alison as she has kept us both going. I am eternally grateful for her support since I retired.”

Former police officer Tim only told his dog, Harley, about the huge Health Lottery jackpot win.

Alison works at the Chelmsford High Street Marks and Spencer. Tim had to leave his job at the British Transport Police after suffering from an unexplained medical condition.

Alison burst into tears after Tim broke the incredible news. She recalled: “I can’t believe Tim managed to keep this a secret for two days. It’s truly the best news ever. I’m so excited!”

The Health Lottery operates as 12 local society lotteries, representing different areas of Great Britain. Regions take turns hosting draws to raise money for their local area. That means everyone gets an equal share of the pot to put towards good causes.

Is this is luckiest newsagents in Western Australia? It just might be after selling two winning lottery tickets within days of each other. What store is it, you ask? Well, it was the Carramar Lottery Centre and News, located in the suburbs.

Lottery-west spokesman James Mooney said it had been a particularly eventful week for WA players.

“This ticket from Carramar Lottery Centre and News in Morley was the second division one ticket sold at this retailer in the space of a week,” Mr Moone

“We are still in the first month of 2020 and have already welcomed six division one players to our winners’ room.”

Winner Number One

Last Saturday, a man from Perth bought a winning Saturday Lotto division one ticket. The West Australian lottery winner revealed the moment he discovered the true extent of his winnings.

“I went to my retailer to double-check my ticket, and when he told me my it was worth $1.6 million my gob hit the floor,” the man said.

He initially believe his prize had been split three-ways with two other winners. However, that was not the case. In fact, we won the full $1.6 million to himself.

The winner was planning to travel abroad with his partner. He talks about his plans after the win.

“When I thought I had won $500,000, I planned to upgrade our seats to business class, but now I’ll be going first,” he said.

Winner Number Two

Only a few days earlier, Carramar Lottery Centre and News had changed the life of another customer. It sold another winning Saturday Lotto division one ticket, with the lucky winner receiving more than $866,700.

Interestingly, a psychic told the winner previously that they would receive a $600,000 windfall! Coincidence?

Happy Staff

A worker at the store, Milan Gohil, sold two lucky tickets within one week.

“I saw a few new faces after the previous draw, so I hope their decision to try out our store will have a good impact for them.”

He made it clear it was a unique start to the year.

It seems like 2020 is going to be a very lucky year for Australian lottery games, with this week’s jackpots including $40 million Powerball and $5 million Oz Lotto.

A $5 million draw was last night. The next chances to win continue tomorrow with the $40 million Powerball, which is already drawing high levels of attention online.

Is the year of the Rat a lucky lottery Zodiac?

Last year The Lott, released the findings of a new survey of more than 100 previous division-one winners. The majority of winners of Australian lotto used the money to safeguard for the future. For example, it found most winners celebrated by investing, helping out loved ones and buying a house.

“Each year, we crown about 400 division-one winners across our lottery games,” Lott spokeswoman Ally Ramsamy said.

“Many of these only discover their good fortune after we make contact with them…

“Not surprisingly, many division-one winners are stunned by the revelation and describe that winning feeling as one of complete and utter disbelief.”

Over £3.7m in grant money from the National Lottery Community Fund has been shared between 116 charity and community projects across Northern Ireland. The funds will tackle issues affecting communities across Northern Ireland such as domestic violence and isolation.

Furthermore, children, who are forced to flee homes because of domestic violence, are among those who will benefit.

A few charities who have received a grant include:

• Belfast and Lisburn Women’s Aid – £9,600 to provide “buddy back packs” for children.
• Fermanagh Women’s Aid – £500,000 to help abuse victims get back on their feet.
• Mid Ulster Women’s Aid – £8,000 grant to refurbish their facility.
• Fermanagh Women’s Aid – £498,237 grant to fund its Safety and Wellbeing Support project over the next four years.

The grant allowed children to feel at home as soon as possible

Noelle Collins, from Belfast and Lisburn Women’s Aid, said:

“When children come to the refuge it is new and scary for them, and it’s really important that they start to feel like it’s home as soon as possible,”

She also though the ‘buddy back pack’ was a brilliant idea since it gave the children something that was theirs after most of them had to leave their belongings behind.

“We try and include things that will help them settle in, such as comfy PJs and some cuddly toys and a tooth brush.

“They can also use the bag as a school bag.”

Belfast and Lisburn Women’s Aid fill up 106 beds in their three refuges every night.

The money will provide safety and wellbeing support to victims

In 2018/19, over 400 children and 600 women stayed in Women’s Aid refuges across Northern Ireland.

All 116 grants range widely in value. The largest sum of £500,000 given to the Children’s Law Centre. The smallest award of £1,920 was given to the Whitecity Community Development Association in Belfast.

The list of recipients is huge, including youth clubs; senior citizens’ organisations; community groups; sports grounds; interface projects; GAA clubs; Orange Halls and an Irish language group.

Additionally, some organisations run projects that aim to improve mental health, tackle loneliness and reduce social isolation.

They have even been able to provide surf therapy!

Furthermore, £200,000 has been allocated to the Wave Project. This is a UK-wide organisation which provides “surf therapy” for children and young people who are vulnerable, isolated or struggling with mental health issues.

Over the next four years, a total of 240 young people will learn to surf off the coast of Portrush. They will also be given the chance to become surf mentors.

Kate Beggs from the National Lottery Community Fund also said:

“Whether it’s small pots of funding or larger grants, people are being brought together to make good things happen and change lives.”
