Lucky Shropshire man scoops £10,000 a month prize from National Lottery
A mystery man, known only as Mr S from Shropshire, has won £10,000 a month for a year, matching the five main numbers in the Set For Life draw.
The Shropshire local has become one of over eight million players that win each week on The National Lottery’s range of games and is the second recent winner from the area after a Mr. B scooped £1m on EuroMillions in April.
Interactive winners have the opportunity to release their name, remain anonymous or like this winner, release some details through partial publicity.
Mr S won the prize in the draw held on Thursday May 12.
Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor for Camelot at The National Lottery, said: "Shropshire is proving to be a lucky area for National Lottery winners. What amazing news for Mr S who can now look forward to receiving £10,000 every month for a whole year.”
In Set For Life, players pick five main numbers from 1 to 47, and one ‘Life Ball’ from 1 to 10, for the chance to win fixed prizes – with everything from the top prize of £10,000 a month for 30 years, to the 2nd prize of £10,000 a month for one year and £5 for matching just two main numbers.
