A nan said she was “shocked” after discovering she had won the lottery weeks after beating cancer.
Elaine Bailey from Whiston had just come out of hospital when she found out that she had won £30,000 on the Postcode Lottery. The nan of eight said that winning the money was a “big relief” as she had to take out her pension to pay her bills during her cancer treatment.
Since the big win just over 12 months ago Elaine said she has given some money to her grandchildren, bought a dachshund called Coco, and is planning to go on holiday later this year.
