The Parkgrove Crescent neighbours landed the cash when EH4 7RW was announced as a People’s Postcode Lottery winner on Sunday (13th September).
People’s Postcode Lottery ambassador Judie McCourt sent her well wishes and said: “A big congratulations to all those who have picked up a prize in Edinburgh. I hope they are able to treat themselves to something special with the money.”
