Greenwich & Bexley Cottage Hospice Lottery has now been running for 25 weeks. Since 31 July 2009 there have been 1000 winners with the 1000th winner scooping £1000 in last Friday's (15 January) draw. The 25th draw £1000 winner, with winning number 35802, was a man from Bexleyheath who was bought a lucky lottery gift voucher.
Greenwich & Bexley Cottage Hospice hopes to increase the membership numbers by reminding everybody of the prizes to be won each and every week. Each week 40 lucky winners share in the £1500 prize fund which has a top prize of £1000. Since it started in July 2009 Greenwich & Bexley Cottage Hospice Lottery has had 1000 lucky winners sharing in £37,500 worth of cash prizes.
