Several postcodes in Dorset, including Poole and Christchurch, won cash prizes in the People's Postcode Lottery during October 2025. Multiple streets across the county were rewarded after their postcodes were selected in the draw.
The People's Postcode Lottery is a subscription-based lottery that supports charities while awarding cash prizes to UK homes. Each day from Monday to Sunday, £1,000 prizes are awarded to 20 different postcodes nationwide. On Saturdays, players compete for a share of £1 million through the Millionaire Street draw.
"Every month players in a postcode sector share £3.2 million or more. In this example, £1.6 million of this will be shared equally by tickets playing with the winning postcode, with the other £1.6 million being shared equally by tickets playing with the winning postcode sector. On the rare occasion where there are not enough winning tickets in the postcode sector, the area may be expanded to the postcode district."
At least 33% of every ticket sold goes directly to charity. Since 2005, the lottery has raised over £1.3 billion for more than 9,000 charitable organizations and causes.
The list of Dorset winners is based on the order in which their postcodes were drawn during the month.
