February 09, 2026

A MAN living in a Welsh town is celebrating a life-changing windfall with the People’s Postcode Lottery.

It has handed out £250,000 to the CF61 2YT area of Llantwit Major. Among the winners was Phil Llewellyn, who represented Wales in back-to-back Commonwealth Games - Brisbane in 1982 and Edinburgh in 1986 - in shooting. He was the only winner when the lottery’s £250,000 prize landed in CF61 2YT on January 31.

The retired farmer and power plant worker, 68, won at his family's farmhouse - and will now share his prize with his family and upgrade a holiday to Australia.
