Steven and Gloria aim to fly high with Lottery Rollover win

05 July 2023

Get those suitcases packed and the passports ready…Steven and Gloria Vernals are aiming for a spot of international travel thanks to the St Luke’s Lottery!

Steven, who lives with wife Gloria in Waterthorpe, has been playing our Lottery for 30 years and has won several small prizes over the decades.

But now the couple have hit the jackpot, picking up the lottery’s coveted £15,000 rollover prize.

And that means that they will soon be jetting off to meet family and friends in The Netherlands and the Philippines.

“It was when I saw the sort of work that hospices do that I decided to support St Luke’s,” said a delighted Steven.

“Over the years I’ve had a few £5 wins but I never imagined that I would ever win the rollover prize.”

It costs just £1 to play our Lottery every week and as well as the £15,000 rollover jackpot, there is a guaranteed weekly £1,000 tax free win as well as 100 chances to win smaller prizes.

More than 5,300 players win a prize every year in the St Luke’s Lottery - an amazing one in three winning odds.

Playing the lottery is a very effective way to support our patient care and help maintain the charity’s ability to deliver vital care for patients with terminal illness, now and in the future.
