Simon Williams, a 42-year-old father, won a £2 million cottage in Devon through the Omaze Million Pound House Draw, which benefits charities like Macmillan Cancer Support. After six months, he sold the property, citing high maintenance costs, and used the proceeds to buy a new home in Sussex. The raffle raised £1.7 million for Macmillan, illustrating how participants can support good causes while entering for valuable prizes.
