Set For Life Winning Numbers Announced for Thursday Draw

The draw determines a £10,000 monthly prize paid over 30 years to any matching ticket holder.

Overview

  • The National Lottery published the Set For Life numbers for Thursday 1 October 2026 as 16, 24, 30, 36 and 41 with Life Ball 6, so players should check their tickets against those figures.
  • The advertised top prize is £10,000 every month for 30 years, which totals £3.6 million if paid in full as stated by the game rules.
  • To play, entrants pick five numbers from 1 to 47 and one Life Ball from 1 to 10 or use a Lucky Dip for a random set of numbers.
  • Each line costs £1.50 and draws take place twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays at 8pm, with media outlets publishing near‑real‑time results after the draw.
  • No named winner was reported in the coverage and any successful ticket holder will need to follow National Lottery procedures to verify and claim their prize, which could substantially change a winner’s financial options.
