The UK National Lottery has a rich history since its inception on November 19, 1994. Over the years, it has created numerous winners, including the record-breaking anonymous player who won £35 million in April 2016. Notably, two ticket holders each walked away with £33 million in January 2016. The largest previous main Lotto jackpot of £42,008,610 was drawn in January 1996, shared among three winners who each received £14,002,870. A single ticket also won £26.4 million on New Year’s Eve in 2016.

The funding model of the National Lottery is designed to benefit various sectors. Approximately half of all money spent by players is allocated to the prize fund. Additionally, 28% is dedicated to good causes, 12% goes to the Government as duty, 5% is given to retailers, and another 5% supports the operation of the lottery itself.

As anticipation builds around the latest draws, players are hopeful of joining the ranks of past winners. The results from the October 1 draws will be closely followed by many eager participants hoping to change their fortunes.
