‘Luck was with us!’
Julia Burton, of High Road, Worksop, didn’t know she had a chance of winning a prize after donating a pound a week to the Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice for five years.
Mrs Burton said: “I had no idea, I never thought it was a lottery. I just wanted to support the Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice, because it’s such a wonderful thing. I had a brush with cancer so it’s wonderful to support the kids at Bluebell.”
