In a significant development, Sharon Healy and Chris Smith have won £400,000 in the People’s Postcode Lottery Millionaire Street prize, announced on March 9, 2026. Healy purchased two tickets, effectively doubling their prize amount.

Charitable Contributions

From their winnings, £60,000 will be donated to Veterans Outreach Support, while Oarsome Chance in Gosport will receive £80,000. These contributions are part of the couple’s commitment to supporting local initiatives.

Wider Impact of the Lottery

The People’s Postcode Lottery has a long-standing partnership with Mary’s Meals, which has raised over £7 million from lottery players. This funding has enabled Mary’s Meals to serve daily school meals to more than three million children worldwide, with a total of over 39 million meals served to date.

Gemma Love from Mary’s Meals expressed gratitude, stating, “We are incredibly grateful to People’s Postcode Lottery players in Dumfries and Galloway, whose ongoing support is helping us reach more children than ever before with a daily school meal that encourages learning, brings hope and changes lives.”

Additionally, a beneficiary named Efigénia shared, “With school meals, I feel good because even with a lack of food at home, here at school I have a meal and I can study.” This highlights the direct impact of the funding on children’s education and well-being.

Looking Ahead

Daily prize announcements for March’s Postcode draws will continue through April 3, providing further opportunities for winners. However, details remain unconfirmed regarding the couple’s charitable donations and their spending plans for the £400,000 prize.

The allocation of the £7 million raised for Mary’s Meals is also not specified, and no confirmed schedule for further announcements regarding this allocation has been provided.
