We’re delighted to share that two more parent carers, Amy and Sam, have won £1,000 each in the Contact Weekly Lottery!
As a single parent to four children, including two with disabilities, Amy said the cash prize will make “an absolutely huge difference” to her family.
“It’s difficult to put into words the hope this brings,” she added. “This money will go a long way in helping me provide for my children’s needs. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for this incredible and timely support.”
Meanwhile, mum and grandmother Sam said it was “absolutely marvellous” to win while knowing you’re also helping a good cause.
Sam first called Contact’s helpline for advice when her disabled son was younger. “The service was excellent,” she said. “The Contact Lottery is an amazing cause. It does so many good things and gives so many disadvantaged families opportunities.”
Huge congratulations to Amy and Sam, who both won just weeks after parent carer Kelly hit the £1,000 jackpot in July.
We’re so pleased their £1 entries turned into a £1,000 win! And if you join us, you could be next…
For just £1 a week, playing our lottery is a bargain way to support Contact’s services for families with disabled children — while also having a chance to win cash every Friday.
