ONE Wirral woman is £2,000 better off this week, after scooping the jackpot in a local lottery.
The woman, who lives in Oxton, Birkenhead, wishes to remain anonymous after her windfall success in the St John's Hospice in Wirral Weekly Lottery.
"She was delighted to have won," said a lottery office official.
Each week throughout the year, the St John's Hospice lottery computer selects at random the 54 numbers which share the £3,000 weekly prize money - a top prize of £2,000, second prize of £500, third prize of £100, fourth prize of £50, 20 £10 winners and 30 £5 winners.
The winning numbers are published each week in the Wirral Globe.
Membership of the lottery, open to people aged 16 or over, costs £1 per week.
