Hampshire block of flats celebrates after huge prize win on Postcode Lottery

Havant Residents Celebrate £1 Million Postcode Lottery Win

A nine-storey block of flats in Havant, Hampshire, is celebrating after residents won the Postcode Lottery’s Millionaire Street prize in November 2025. Each of the four winning residents received £250,000 as part of the £1 million jackpot.

The People’s Postcode Lottery is a subscription service that raises funds for charities while offering cash rewards to participants across the UK. Weekly draws award £1,000 to winners in various postcodes, and every Saturday one postcode shares a £1 million prize.

Juliette’s Lucky Break

One of the winners, Juliette, almost missed out on her prize. She had planned to cancel her subscription while managing finances, but work commitments delayed her plans.

“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, who works as a project manager, plans to use part of her winnings to upgrade her car and take a trip to the Maldives.

Lottery Impact and Community Spirit

The win has brought excitement and joy to the Havant community, showcasing how the Postcode Lottery supports both local residents and charitable initiatives throughout the UK.
