Street Prize
Delighted In Seaton Delaval
Four Seaton Delaval neighbours were delighted to find out they'd scooped today's #30KADAY Street Prize after their postcode NE25 0JJ got lucky. Three of the residents collected £30,000 each, with a fourth landing £60,000 thanks to playing with two tickets.
Surprise Of Their Lives
One of our £30,000 winners was Ken and his wife Joan, who had the surprise of their life when they saw our Postcode Lottery team on their street as they had just arrived home from a holiday. Joan said, "We had no idea anyone was coming because we'd been away so missed their call. I saw the neighbour getting her cheque and was so excited for her. She's had a tough couple of years so it was lovely to see some happiness coming her way. I still didn't realise they were coming here too." Ken added, "It's just such a surprise. We're just back from holiday but I think we'll treat ourselves to another."
A Believer In Charity
Their neighbour Wendy was our lucky £60,000 winner. Wendy was joined by her husband Nigel when she was presented with her prize. She said, "I'm going to buy my sister a new boiler, but after that I'll need to think about it.
"I am a big believer in charity, so that's why I signed up. I love animals and I know that lots of animal charities, like Cats Protection and PDSA are supported by playing."
Everyone Will Get Something
Barbra was also thrilled with her prize. She said, "The money's going to come in handy. We're a close family and like to share everything, so everyone will get something."
Our remaining winner couldn't be there to collect their cheque in person so their prize money will be paid directly into their bank account.
Visiting Seaton Delaval to meet our winners was Street Prize Presenter Danyl Johnson. He said, "I've had a fantastic day in Seaton Delaval, or as one of the winners called it, Seaton Delightful! I hope they all enjoy spending their winnings."
