Where did you hear about the Oldham Community Lottery?
Through my employer Action Together.
Why did you choose to support Spark Oldham?
I see everyday the different that is being made in Tameside, Oldham and Rochdale and I saw it as a great opportunity to support the work, through a trusted source all whilst being in a draw to win prizes.
What was your reaction once you had found out you had won £250?
What a way to start 2026 mixed with shock. It was a great surprise to open that email!
What will you spend your winnings on?
I’m unsure yet, either towards a holiday in the Summer or take the sensible route and put it towards my college fees.
What would you say to someone to encourage them to play the Oldham Community Lottery?
If you have the money to spare, I would encourage it. The signup process was slick, the updates aren’t overbearing and you have a chance to win great prizes. I’ve been playing the national lottery for years and I’ve only ever won a few lucky dips – Since playing the Oldham Community Lottery for just over a year, I’ve had a couple of wins, so it seems you have a great chance to win whilst supporting great local work.
