A block of flats in Havant, Hampshire, is celebrating after several residents won significant prizes in the Postcode Lottery in November 2025. This lottery operates as a subscription service, raising funds for charities while offering cash prizes to participants across the UK.
From Monday to Friday and Sunday, 20 different postcodes across the UK have a chance to win £1,000 prizes. On Saturdays, players compete for a share of £1 million. This month, a nine-storey block of flats in Havant, with the postcode PO9 2LD, saw four residents share the £1 million prize, each receiving £250,000.
“I was going to cancel a couple of months back, but I’m really bad at personal stuff. I was going through direct debits and bits and pieces,” said Juliette, one of the winners and a project manager. She almost missed out on the prize as she had planned to stop her lottery subscription but forgot due to focusing on a promotion at work.
Juliette plans to use her winnings to upgrade her car and travel to the Maldives.
The People's Postcode Lottery supports charities while providing exciting cash prizes, bringing hope and celebration to communities like Havant.
