Lottery winner funds Chichester centre for vulnerable adults – feeds.bbci.co.uk

Steve and Lenka Thomson won the £105m EuroMillions jackpot in 2019
A builder who won £105m on the National Lottery has funded and helped create a new centre for vulnerable young adults.
Steve Thomson, from Selsey, West Sussex, scooped the EuroMillions jackpot in 2019, vowing to give back to his local community.
On Friday, the 48-year-old opened a new permanent building for the charity Together Our Community (TOC) in Chichester.
"I knew exactly where I wanted to help after I won," Mr Thomson said.
The father-of-three added: "A few friends have sons and daughters with autism and other learning difficulties, and there was nowhere in the area for them to congregate safely, learn skills and make friends.
"As soon as they turn 18, they are completely forgotten about unless they're lucky enough to get a funded place in college.
"Even so, parents are left totally isolated and often have to give up their own jobs to support their kids.
"It's a real struggle and heartbreaking to hear their stories."
A spokesperson for the charity said the funding would "transform our ability to support young adults with disabilities to live, learn and work".
Mr Thomson said: "At first I helped TOC in a small way, buying a second-hand minibus to take the young people out for work experience with local businesses, volunteering activity and fun daytrips."

Mr Thomson said he found a near derelict building in the middle of Chichester and poured his energy and resources into transforming it into the perfect base for the charity.
Across three floors, the new centre has a sensory room, an open-plan classroom and a training kitchen and cafe where the young people can learn how to cook and develop skills in hospitality.
Hilary Freeborough, from TOC, said: "When Steve said, 'I've found the building for you', we genuinely felt like we had won the jackpot ourselves.
"The support he has given us is incredible.
"He didn't just write a cheque. He has been here throughout, from planning the layout to ensuring we had the right circuit breakers, and the leaves were swept."
Fellow charity founder, Louise Collins, added: "Steve is so humble but we keep reminding him that his commitment to supporting us and the passion he has shown will be life-changing for so many young people."
Mr Thomson – who still visits his old village to meet his friends at the local pub – claimed his motivation came from a childhood spent volunteering alongside his father, Peter, a self-employed window cleaner.

Red Wings' Simon Edvinsson: Suiting up versus Tampa Bay – CBS Sports

If not listed, please contact your TV provider.
Edvinsson (illness) is in the lineup for Friday’s home contest against the Lightning, according to Ansar Khan of MLive.com.
Edvinsson will slot into a top-pairing role alongside Moritz Seider following a three-game absence. Friday’s game is the first half of a back-to-back for Detroit, so Edvinsson being available against Tampa Bay seemingly indicates he has fully moved past his illness.

EuroMillions jackpots and digital channels lift Allwyn’s UK lottery revenues – The Grocer

By 2025-11-28T14:51:00+00:00
National Lottery
The results come as Allwyn is prepares its retail partners for the Christmas period
High EuroMillions jackpots have encouraged consumers to buy more lottery tickets, with Allwyn International reporting a 2% rise in third-quarter UK revenues to €974m (£852.3m) on a constant currency basis.
The parent company of the National Lottery operator said the UK’s steady growth was also driven by its digital channel, such as interactive instant win games, and targeted promotional and marketing activity.
However, total revenue in the quarter to 30 September was down by 1% after accounting for currency headwinds.
Adjusted EBITDA was €9m (£7.8m), an increase of €3m (£2.6m).
“We remained focused on the ongoing execution of our plans to transform the UK National Lottery, including upgrading legacy technology infrastructure that has long constrained new product development and innovation, to support future commercial initiatives and the further enhancement of the customer proposition,” the accounts said.
“During the quarter, we were delighted to successfully transition to a new central lottery system as one of over 30 system upgrades carried out, as well as activating new state of-the-art retail terminals to over 70% of our retail partners. The rollout of new retail terminals has continued after the end of the quarter.”
The results come as Allwyn UK prepares its retail partners for the Christmas period with festive draws and a new scratchcard campaign.
This year’s festive draw lineup includes a £15m Lotto ‘Must Be Won’ draw on Christmas Eve, which will be supported by a nationwide advertising campaign across TV, press, online, and digital billboards from 18 December. The EuroMillions 10 UK Millionaires draw will follow on 2 January, with in-store PoS available from 25 December.
Allwyn said these were an opportunity to boost sales for retailers.
The National Lottery operator has also invested £7m into a media campaign across November and December, featuring new ‘Scratchcard-igans’ with Olympian Tom Daley.
It has confirmed the return of the ‘Big Thank You’ giveaway, following its summer debut. Running from 1 to 14 December, the ‘Big Thank You’ will reward 40 independent retailers with the choice of seven prize options, including a Eurostar city break, Michelin Star culinary experience, and cricket hospitality.
“Retailers are central to our festive plans, with exclusive scratchcards and three major event draws creating a huge opportunity to boost sales and spread some cheer,” said Alison Acquaye-Acford, Allwyn director of commercial partnerships and retail sales.
We’re urging them to make the most of PoS, talk to customers about the draws, and join the fun of our Scratchcard-igans campaign. And with the return of our ‘Big Thank You’ prize giveaway from 1 December, there’s even more reason to get involved and win incredible rewards. It’s the perfect way to end 2025 and kick off 2026 – for retailers, players, and the good causes they help support.”
