Lucky Lancashire man wins £10k a month for one year after National Lottery win on Boxing Day

A man from Lancashire won £10,000 a month for a year after matching five numbers in the the Set For Life draw on Monday, December 26

The mystery winner – known only as Mr. E from Lancashire – said he plans to go on holiday and buy a new car with his prize money.

Mr. E, who played a personal selection of random numbers via the National Lottery app, has become one of over eight million players that win each week on The National Lottery’s range of games.

Interactive winners have the opportunity to release their name, remain anonymous or like this winner, release some details through partial publicity.

Camelot’s Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery, said: “What amazing news for Mr. E who can now look forward to receiving £10,000 every month for a whole year and going on a dream holiday.

“That win will be a Boxing Day to remember!”
