Lorraine Sanger, owner of The Chocolate Box in the Homend, heard the good news about her win from Olympic gold medallist Steve Williams.
A LEDBURY shopowner has won tickets to the Olympics after beating off competition from more than 5,000 stores.
Lorraine Sanger, owner of The Chocolate Box in the Homend, has won athletics finals tickets, return travel and overnight accommodation after scoring full marks for her work on Camelot’s retailer reward programme Rewards+.
The Chocolate Box was one of only 15 winning National Lottery retail outlets across the country to be selected and the store even received a special visit from double Olympic gold medallist Steve Williams who delivered the good news in person.
“We are so excited that we have won such fantastic tickets for London 2012. This really is a dream come true for us and having Steve here today has made it even more special," said Lorraine.
