EuroMillions Success in the UK
This has been quite a year for the UK’s EuroMillions faithful, with the number of winners from the island nation seemingly increasing week by week. Andy Carter, the National Lottery’s senior winners’ advisor, announced his delight at being able to hand over yet another huge cheque: “Just one week after a £15 million winner we now have another UK ticket holder banking a giant EuroMillions jackpot,” he said. “The £25,476,778 win from the November 3 draw makes them the seventh EuroMillions jackpot winner on these shores this year.”
Carter was also keen to point out the positives of participating in National Lottery draws: “By buying a ticket for this [EuroMillions] or any other National Lottery game, every player is helping to raise money for Good Causes. On average over £30 million is raised every week for projects across the UK, both big and small, from supporting community groups to funding the nation's athletes.”
