Overview
- The Postcode Lottery named five North West winning postcodes in its daily draw on July 17, with every valid ticket in each postcode receiving £1,000.
- The winning areas include BL6 4BA (Chorley New Road, Horwich), L36 3UU (Alt Bridge Road, Liverpool), M28 3PD (Stoneyside Grove, Worsley), M40 7UA (Keele Walk, Manchester) and WN3 6BD (Winstanley, Wigan).
- Those five postcodes were part of the lottery’s routine selection of 20 winning postcodes on the day, a format that pays £1,000 per valid ticket in each chosen postcode.
- The reporting is drawn from the lottery operator’s announcements and a Lancashire Telegraph article published via a USA Today partnership, and the prize and charitable claims are reported rather than independently verified.
- The operator says subscriptions direct at least 33% of ticket sales to charities and that players have helped raise more than £1.7 billion for good causes since the scheme began.
