Britain's luckiest towns with the most Postcode Lottery winners revealed – does your area make the list?

One northern town tops the list – and three neighbours shared a £10k win LOTTO LUCK Britain's luckiest towns with the most Postcode Lottery winners revealed – does your area make the list? NEW research has revealed the UK's luckiest places to play the Postcode Lottery – and one northern town is topping the charts with the most wins per postcode district. Preston (PR), in Lancashire, has been named the luckiest area, with an average of 47.64 wins across its 11 postcode districts. 1 Postcodes are selected at random, but the latest figures suggest some areas may have a winning edge. The findings come from a study by Casino Deps, which looked at wins dating from January 2011 to June 2025. Warrington (WA), in Cheshire, came second with 38.63 average wins, followed by the seaside town of Blackpool (FY), also in Lancashire, with 37.38. The rest of the top ten includes Nottingham, Leicester, Bolton, Croydon, Motherwell, Stoke-on-Trent, and Blackburn. At the other end of the scale, Kirkwall (KW) in the Orkney Islands, Scotland, was the least lucky area, with just 3.75 wins per postcode district on average. Western Central London (WC) and the Outer Hebrides (HS) also ranked among the lowest. Amanda Wilson, CMO at Casino Deps, said: 'Lancashire sticks out as the luckiest county in the Postcode Lottery, with Preston, Blackpool and Blackburn all in the top ten. "The North West of England seems to be having the most luck overall.' She added: 'Preston is by far the luckiest, with its average number of wins per postcode district over 23% higher than the second-ranking area. "This could simply be down to more people in Preston being signed up to the Postcode Lottery. More sign-ups mean more chances to win.' The Postcode Lottery is popular across the UK, with cash prizes given out daily and thousands raised for good causes. Postcodes are selected at random, but the latest figures suggest some areas may have a winning edge. Inside the dramatic lives of the biggest EuroMillions winners EVER Residents in previously low-ranking regions have still seen surprise wins, including lucky streets where multiple neighbours bagged thousands each, simply by playing. It's one of the few lotteries where you win alongside people on your own doorstep. The community feel is a big part of the appeal. Unlike traditional lotteries, Postcode Lottery prizes are shared among every player in the winning postcode, which means entire neighbourhoods can celebrate together. And it's not the only chance to bag a fortune this week. Friday's EuroMillions draw is offering a huge £109 million jackpot – and Brits are already dreaming of their lucky numbers coming up. In recent years, winners have gone on to lead extraordinary lives. Joe and Jess Thwaite from Gloucester won £184 million in 2022 and now live in a dream home with their children. Frances and Patrick Connolly from Northern Ireland scooped £115 million in 2019. Remember to gamble responsibly. The Postcode Lottery and EuroMillions are forms of gambling, and you must be 18 or over to take part. Please keep spending within your limits. If you need help or advice, support is available at or by calling the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133. The Postcode Lottery sets spending caps and notes that most players win small prizes. However, every entry helps support a wide range of charities, from children's initiatives to environmental projects. Last year alone, players raised over £100 million for good causes, funding everything from community gardens to mental health services. That means even if your postcode doesn't come up, someone still wins in another way. Within months, they'd given away over half to loved ones and charities, saying they just wanted to 'spread the happiness.' Karen, 42, from Wakefield – which came 20th in the ranking – said she nearly missed her win because she forgot she'd signed up. 'I got the letter and thought it was junk mail,' she said. 'When I opened it and saw I'd won £10,000, I burst into tears. "Two of my neighbours won too, so we had a street party with bunting and bubbles!' Of course, experts always remind players to gamble responsibly.

45p homemade solution gardeners swear by for killing ivy – it works in a couple of days & stops it growing back

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) IVY may look pretty but it can be impossible to remove from the exterior of your home. The invasive plant climbs up your walls and may eventually cause damage to your brickwork. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 A DIY solution can help to tackle your invasive ivy problem (stock image) Credit: Getty If your house is covered in this stubborn growth, a simple trick can help to banish it from your property. In one swoop, you can kill off any ivy and prevent it from growing back. And all you need is two kitchen ingredients that won't break the bank. The DIY solution is recommended by Chris Bonnett from Gardening Express. 'A few strands of ivy can look great in a garden but if English ivy starts to grow over leaves and plants, it can cause significant damage," he explained. As well as damaging your brickwork, ivy can also prevent other plants from receiving essential nutrients from sunlight. To tackle this issue, the gardening expert advises homeowners to tackle the root of the problem, literally. Killing the roots is a crucial step, and while some people suggest using natural methods such as boiling water, this expert has a different method. He revealed that he swears by a homemade solution of apple cider vinegar and salt. "The salt dehydrates the ivy and disrupts its water balance, while the acidic content of the mixture helps kill it," he explained. Shoppers urged 'not to blink' and get their hands on Home Bargains garden essential that sold out fast last time and it makes your garden extra cute - TikTok homebargainsofficialuk This means when the foliage has died, you can remove the roots to stop it coming back However, he warned against spraying the mixture onto the plant. Instead, the pro recommended manually apply it in a careful manner. 'Put on some gardening gloves and rub the solvent onto the ivy as using a spray bottle could damage nearby plants," he said. For the best results, apply the solution on a dry day and check the forecast to make sure no rain is expected for the following days. This concoction should start working immediately, eliminating the remaining ivy within five days, according to the expert. And while the mixture should put an end to your ivy problem, it won't have any long-term effects on your soil. You can execute this method without breaking the bank. A 350ml bottle of Apple Cider Vinegar is available from Tesco for just £1.50. But since you will only need around 100ml to carry out this process, the cost breaks down to just 43p. And tack on an additional 2p for the five teaspoons of table salt you can take from the 750g bottle from Sainsbury's, available for just 69p.
