A mum of four from near Walthamstow is planning to travel abroad for the first time after winning £70K on a Seven Times Lucky Scratchcard by The National Lottery.
The community volunteer, in her 60s, regularly plays the Seven Times Lucky Scratchcard, as she says the prize value doesn’t feel as scary as others.
Speaking on her win, she said: “Winning was an incredible moment… I felt like I had been kissed by an angel!
“I’s truly excited about the opportunities this win will create for me and my family’s future. I’m going to travel abroad for the first time and soak up all of the history of the places I will visit!”
Dean O’Field, Winners’ Advisor at Allwyn, operator of The National Lottery, congratulated the winner, saying: “We are ecstatic for our lucky Walthamstow winner, and the amazing opportunities that this win opens up for her and her family. Now the big question is where will she explore first on her travels?”
There is a 1 in 3.32 overall chance of winning a prize on each Seven Times Lucky Scratchcard.
