New year, new winner as Harrow lottery player wins £2, 000!

A Harrow Wins lottery player has started the new year with a £2,000 win while supporting local charity My Yard.

Money raised through Harrow Wins helps My Yard continue its work supporting local people with food, warmth and wellbeing.

One recent project is the Tuesday Men’s Club, set up to support men who were feeling stressed, lonely and socially isolated. The weekly sessions take place at Northolt Warm Hub and now welcome around 12 to 15 regular members in a relaxed and friendly setting.

Running from 2pm to 5pm, the sessions offer hot drinks and snacks, shared cooking, light fitness and boxing pad work. There are also occasional outings and guest speakers on health and wellbeing.

The club has helped boost confidence, encourage healthier habits and connect men with support.

Janet Mote, Cabinet Member for Community and Culture, said: “Congratulations to the £2,000 winner and thank you to everyone who plays Harrow Wins. This lottery helps local charities like My Yard support people who really need it. Every ticket makes a difference, and it is great to see such a positive start to the new year.”

Looking ahead, My Yard hopes to expand the Men’s Club with more outings and activities to keep members motivated and connected.

Harrow Wins is a fundraising platform for charities and community groups across the borough. At least 60% of every £1 ticket sold goes directly to good causes in Harrow, with players also in with a chance of winning up to £25,000 every week.
