A block of flats in the Hampshire town of Havant celebrated after several residents won major prizes in the Postcode Lottery in November 2025. This subscription lottery supports charities and awards cash prizes to homes across the UK.
From Monday to Friday and on Sundays, 20 different UK postcodes can win £1,000 prizes. On Saturdays, players compete for a share of a £1 million jackpot.
The nine-storey block of flats with postcode PO9 2LD saw four residents share the £1 million Saturday 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. Promotion came up at work and I’ve been working for that for the last two months and never got round to it.”
Juliette, a project manager, almost missed out on her winnings as she intended to stop her lottery subscription but forgot amid her focus on a promotion.
