Volunteer Fran is one of our lucky lottery jackpot winners!

Volunteer Fran has been playing our Big Fish Lottery since it started, as a way of supporting St Andrew's Hospice. She's been lucky enough to enjoy several wins, including the £1,000 jackpot!

Fran said: “I wanted to join the lottery to support the hospice. I’ve volunteered for 17 years and have seen the incredible work that happens here each day – work that wouldn’t be possible without things like the lottery.

“Signing up for the lottery and taking part for so long is really rewarding because you can see the benefits. You can see how it benefits the patients, their families and the local community. The additional support that is offered to people is amazing."

Fran has volunteered in our charity retail shops, as well as on reception at our Peaks Lane site and even as part of our fundraising team.

She added: “Each time I’ve won I’ve been surprised, excited and delighted! When I won £1,000, I shared it with my children and treated myself to some really good winter boots at the insistence of my husband! I most recently won £5 and used that to buy more tickets to give back to the hospice.”
