The BID (Business Improvement District) team dropped into Simply Baby in the city centre to surprise one lucky customer and offer them a choice of two boxes to open.

Both boxes contained a prize to spend in store, but only one had the £500 jackpot.

After a tense pause, Rebecca chose a box to open and was delighted to reveal the jackpot prize.

The £500 prize really made her day and will be a real help towards the costs of a new baby.

The Love Lancaster Lottery launched this week to coincide with the reopening of many shops around the district after the easing of lockdown restrictions on Monday.
