A Lancashire couple are raffling off a newly renovated three-bedroom home in West Lancashire - and it can be yours for just £1.
Married couple Jennifer and David Matthews, both 51, are raffling off a property they own in Skelmersdale to help those struggling to get on the property ladder. The couple, who share two teenage children, previously raffled off the family’s five bedroom home in Adlington, as well as their Ferrari car, and now they are doing the same to another Lancashire property - an ex-council house that is now worth around £110,000.
Because the property was identified where it was, and we were living in the property, people were turning up drunk, people were turning up aggressively. “We had threats, the CID did get involve. I’m tough, I said they're behind keyboards, I’m behind electric gates, they’re not going to do anything, and the police said ‘You need to take this seriously, because there was handwritten, hand delivered letters.' “It brought out every kind of individual in society, that raffle.
