TWO people from Crediton have won £1,000 each.

The Oxford Terrace neighbours netted the windfall when EX17 1HD was announced as a Daily Prize winner with People’s Postcode Lottery on Tuesday, December 1.

People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Danyl Johnson sent his well-wishes to the winners.

He said: “What a lovely surprise to kick-off December, congratulations to our winners in Crediton! I’m sure they’ll enjoy spending the cash and treat themselves to something special.”

A minimum of 32 per cent of ticket sales goes directly to charities and players of People’s Postcode Lottery have raised more than £600 million to-date for thousands of good causes in Britain and beyond.

This draw was promoted by African Parks which has received more than £4.3 million in funding from the players of People’s Postcode Lottery.

African Parks manages and restores national parks in Africa, in partnership with governments and local communities.

It applies a business approach to conserving Africa’s wildlife and remaining wild areas, securing vast landscapes and carrying out the necessary activities needed to protect the parks and their wildlife.

Many good causes close to the winners have also benefitted from players’ support, and local charities can apply for funding next year.
