FOUR EMMBROOK residents have each won £1,000 as part of the People’s Postcode Lottery.

The residents on Ashton Road, Emmbrook won the prize after the RG41 1HL postcode was announced as the daily prize winner this morning. 

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Danyl Johnson sent his well-wishes to the winners. He said: “Congratulations to our winners in Wokingham. I hope they go out and treat themselves to something nice for Christmas now!”

A minimum of 32% of ticket sales goes directly to charities. To date, players of People’s Postcode Lottery have raised £500 million for good causes across the country. 

This draw was promoted by Save the Children which has received over £7.6 million in funding from the players of People’s Postcode Lottery. 

It supports children from disadvantaged backgrounds and helps them stay healthy, safe and in education.

The next opportunity local charities will have to apply for funding will be early next year.
