THREE lucky residents from Newtown are set for an extra special Christmas this year after scooping £30,000 each, thanks to their postcode.
The Parklands neighbours were announced as winners after SY16 1LW was named as a winning postcode with People’s Postcode Lottery on Wednesday, December 18.
This prize was part of People’s Postcode Lottery’s special Christmas campaign where one postcode is drawn every day to win £30,000 per ticket throughout the December draws.

Offering her congratulations, People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Judie McCourt, said: “This is such a magical time of year, so I’m thrilled to see three winners from Newtown win their £30,000 cash prizes in time for Christmas.
"The extra cash during this festive period will hopefully help the winners celebrate well into the New Year, or at least provide a few extra treats for themselves or their families and friends.
“It’s also lovely that local charities will benefit from the money raised by our players meaning everyone is a winner this Christmas.
"I wish all the winners a merry Christmas and look forward to hearing how they spend their cash prizes.”
