NURSE LOOKING FOR A NEW HOME FOLLOWING JACKPOT

- By MARK PAGE

A DEDICATED nurse and mum from Laceby, who made a wish for “a little extra money” by tossing a coin into a wishing well, has had her dreams realised.

Becki Hulatt, 43, scooped £250,000 on the ‘Jungle Jackpot’ National Lottery Instant Win Game just hours after a trip that now seems to have been sprinkled with a touch of good fortune.

Becki, who lives in a cottage with her 18-year-old son Brandon, has spoken about what happened in the run-up to her life-changing win.

She said: “A couple of days before our trip to the Peak District, my son’s old banger finally gave up on him. He was supposed to be heading there with his friends, but because his car broke down, I offered to drive them instead.

“The Peak District is one of our favourite places to go - we've always loved walking there and spending time outdoors together. When we arrived at Matlock Bath we went for a walk and came across a little wishing well tucked away on the trail. We both threw in 50p - he wished for a new car, and I wished to win some money.
